I wish I got tested for covid in January but I didn't because I figured it was just a bad cold. When I get sick, I always am hit hard, so figured it was no different. I looked into CIDP and I don't think it is that because an EMG and MRIs diagnose that, and I had both and they were normal/clean results. Thanks for sharing the Avise CTD, I haven't heard of that before but will research. My rheumatologist said myositis is unlikely, especially since my bloodwork for CK, aldolase, etc came back low/normal. Yes, maybe I need to try to find a new doctor or cold email various renowned institutions and see if anyone is passionate enough/interested in researching my case. I try to keep up with PT, but it leaves me more sore/wiped out after for a couple days after, so it really is a delicate dance with not overdoing it but also trying to build strength. It's ironic since a workout arguably set this all off, yet I'm working out to try to get better. I can do more reps/exercises than when I first got there, so I guess it must be doing something.
