Hi Bridget, you're asking great questions regarding a possible cytokine storm of myopathy due to COVID. I recommend asking your medical team, who are familiar with your existing conditions as well as the possible exacerbation by COVID. I'm sure others will have thoughts as well.

While more common in children, rarely, some adults develop a new and serious syndrome, called multisystem inflammatory syndrome in adults (MIS-A). MIS-A occurs in adults who were previously infected with the COVID-19 virus and many didn't even know it. MIS-A seems to occur weeks after COVID-19 infection, though some people have a current infection.

Thank you! I am meeting with my doctor again on Tuesday. I mentioned to her about a test for MIS-A...She added two additional tests for a blood test and I will see what those results are. They have not seen these kinds of responses in our community, which is why I am casting a broader net. Thanks again!
