Many vials of blood taken. Only including abnormal results below
Eosinophils .2!!!! Is that from taking prednisone?
Creatinine 1.3 (known issue, seeing nephrologist today)
GFR - really low. Probably get another "take home 24 hour pee test".
What's really strange, SED rate is normal. That's insane. Maybe the pred again?

CK or CPK not taken, as crazy as it sounds, since I've been re-diagnosed from PM to MCTD, my muscle enzymes have been normal but the JO1 Antibody is out of control.
ANTI-JO-1 Positive, 3.9
SCL-70 AB,EIA Positive, 1.0, A
Sjogren's

My Autoimmune Disease
A little about me and MCTD:
In the year 2000, I belonged to a gym and had a personal trainer. At one of the training sessions, I was doing squats while holding weights, and I almost threw up. I knew something was wrong. I remember that moment like it was yesterday. Is it possible that at that moment, my body had some kind of negative reaction to these squats I couldn't tolerate? Gradually I grew very weak.
