[RC] rhabdomyolysis, lab values - Nancy

I just received the lab results for Lyric’s episode on Wednesday.  They are amazingly high.  And today she is acting completely normal, sassy self.  Hard to believe, but true.  So, here they are, I just about fainted when I saw them.  CK 12,708 (norm 120-470), AST 942 (norm 175-340).  Her BUN and creatine (?spelling)   both indicators of kidney function,  are with in normal limits as are her e-lytes and protein levels.  I am scheduling the muscle biopsy ASAP.

Thank you, everyone for all the stories, suggestions and replies.  They are 99.9% positive.  Yes, horses with this disease can do endurance!  More to follow,
