No mention of the most important test - skin biopsy results. Everything you present is less important.
Thank you for your response. My apologies for not getting back to you sooner.I am not sure about the ENA. I did a Google search and think I found what test results to include. Let me know if these results are not what you need.Below are the results of lab tests from September 22. These tests were done before I started treatment for DM.CK - 1,063 units/literAldolase - 26.3 units/literANA - Negative (<1:80)RNP/Sm - < 12 unit(s)Anti-Smith - < 12 unit(s)C3c - 107.0 mg/dLC4c - 20.0 mg/dLKappa FLC - 12.7 mg/LLambda FLC - 17.5 mg/LFLC - 0.73 ratioIgG Card - < 9 GPL-Units/mLIgM Card - 16 MPL-units/millileterI'm not sure if ALT and AST help with diagnosing DM, but they came back abnormal. This isn't unusual for me (they've been as high as 240 on tests I've had done over the last 10 years), but I thought I'd include them, just in case:ALT - 56 units/literAST - 44 units/literBelow are the changes in some of these values when I had the lab tests performed again on November 4. These tests were done after I had already started prednisone and hydroxychloroquine.CK - 83 units/literAldolase - 9.2 units/literIgM Card - 23 MPL-units/millileterALT - 15 units/literAST - 14 units/literHere are the best images I have of the skin discoloration. Because the discoloration on my knees is usually worse while I'm in the shower and right after I get out, I took the photos and video of my knees in the shower. There is nothing graphic in these images, but I wanted to explain why I took them in the shower.Right hand - https://imgur.com/icyYOPQKnuckle, right hand - https://imgur.com/fD48uK0Left arm - https://imgur.com/JVPth2XBoth knees - https://imgur.com/bszpHWgRight knee - https://imgur.com/cjdn4zVBlanching (Video) - https://imgur.com/3KszJT7
