Get a diagnosis : You need a diagnosis. This could be an autoimmune disease, inclusion body myositis( often resistant to treatment), a metabolic or mitochondrial disease. It can also be a medication side effect, toxin, or due to other disease. The first step is to get a definite diagnosis and then treat. The treatment may also require time to work. This will depend on the cause and the specific treatment used.
