Tested Positive For Lupus. What Should I Do?

Hi I have very achey legs, I have had fluid in my hands on waking and joint pain the last week. I had an episode of this occurring a few years ago, I found it difficult to walk for a few days. I have not tested positive for lupus. I am an active 50 year old woman.

Dear Madam,

Kindly get your CPK done to rule out the possibilty of myositis as joint pain and muscle aches can be found in this disease also.
