Asthma, an unconfirmed dx of inclusion body myositis or polymyositis (dx at the same time during hospitalizations), I was on steroid treatment, so did not do the
muscle biopsy. All dx were backed up by clinical picture
and bloodwork. Also anemic ++.
I have just had my annual blood work results come in, and my cholesterol is rising, inspite of dietary changes. Total cholesterol is 218, HDL 64 and LDL 135, LDL/HDL ratio 2.11, chol/HDL ratio 3.41.
