SLE?: Hi, if these are all the symptoms that you have u still don;t meet the criteria for SLE (u need 4 out of 11 criteria, u only have 2, ANA and weakness), C3, C4 are not diagnostic just we follow them in SLE to monitor the response to the treatment, MS, per se, may not cause the rise of CPK unless there is muscle wasting due to inactivity, The lyme doesn't fit the symptoms much although it's not
