Was being flushed by that damn drip with sodium chloride at the same rate. My ck levels were a bit lower than yours at 53,000 (the doctors were telling me it was the highest measure they could get??) and it was the cause of toooooo many squats. The kidneys and Liver go through a lot to process the toxins that are being released and if not treated immediately will lead to failure of those organs. Glad we're both ok now. good luck in future training. Best wishes that it doesn't happen again. hey sheldon i had the exact same thing just last week, was in hospital for 8 or so days.

Grow up. This is a very real and upsetting problem for a lot of people so take your rude comments elsewhere. Jk, have you had any further results from your biopsy? Jordon, Angie and blah blah.

Jk, have you had any further results from your biopsy?

I am in the hospital for the last day after spending a week here for rhabdo. I've read the other stories that other people told about and they comforted me. About a week ago I worked out after not doing so for a very long time and really pushed it. I didn't lift heavy weights just a lot of reps. I also did many pull ups and I think that's where I did a lot of damage. I went home that night I urinated a brown tea color. I thought this was from drinking a lot of iced tea but this continued for the next two days. I went to the hospital for swollen arms and the brown urine thinking I would probably leave that night. Turns out my muscles broke down a lot and my ck level was around 150,000. I don't know how that work out I did made it so extremely high. I've been on an iv for the past week straight with 250 ml of sodium chloride. Being flushed out and peeing a lot brought my ck level down to 3,800. Its still high so I must continue to drink lots of water when I leave. I've been told that if immediate flushing of the toxin from the blood isn't done, it could lead to kidney failure. I checked online and that's what made me come to the hospital. I'm going to get blood work done to see if it continues to go down in the next couple of days. The doctors say my kidneys and liver and everything is good because I flushed out the toxin known as, check spelling, myoglobin. I'm going to keep doing research and find out more about rhabdo and ck levels. The norm is about 50-150 but I'm wondering if its possible to keep this norm and still work out. I wish you all the best and if you're urinating dark brown, go to the emergency room and get it checked out! I am 19 years old and tomorrow is my 20th birthday.

I almost died. But then came along The Rev and he saved my life. The doctors said that they had never seen anything like it before. I t was like he came down from heaven and grabbed me up outta the hospital bed. So we left and went to a mcDonalds to buy 300 hamburgers, because i was with the rev and nothing would kill me.

For the last year or so I have been getting lab work done to keep an eye on abnormal liver enzymes. About 4 months ago I noticed that my urine was a dark red or rust color. Of course being concerned about that I consulted my doctor but by the time I made it in to do lab work my urine had cleared up. This would only happen every 3 to 4 weeks. In the most recent episode, I went to the doctor the next day to do my labs...this time I spent 4 days in the hospital hooked up to IV's because of my CK level. Initally my CK's were at 48,000 the day I did my lab work, the next day they were at 51,000. At the same time my liver enzymes AST and ALT were in the 300's. (I was also running a low grade fever) It took 4 days to get my CK's down to under 5,000 but was still released from the hospital. I did ultrasounds and echo's to make sure my kidney, liver, and heart were o.k...which they are thank God. I also did a muscle biopsy of which I have not recieved the results yet. I consider myself relatively healthy, I do not take any medications and have not had any physical symptoms?? I feel fine. No noticible pain or weakness. Hopefully I will have the biopsy results back soon. I am a 33 year old male. For the last year or so I have been getting lab work done to keep an eye on abnormal liver enzymes.
