Default has anyone got myositis on here? (muscle disease) PICS 31-8

ive just had my results back from the hospital and i have this in my right bicep! myositis is a very rare condition and is basically inflammed muscles or another term is muscle disease, where the white blood cells attack healthy tissue etc.... got to have a blood test and biopsy first to see what type i have, from what i know there are 3 different types , in some cases it is severe i.e cancer!

oh well shit happens ive got it now, there isnt a cure but i can have steroids to prevent the bad pains i suffer from and extreme weakness in the arm! i believe these have to be taken daily for my life id imagine! been told to rest it, my job does not help though!

initially i, my physio and hospital thought i had bicep tendonitis! but actually its my inflammed bicep muscle putting pressure on my tendon!

here is where on my bicep it is affecting me, its spreading over time, gutted really as i cant do no gymwork or any type or fighting style untill i have my blood test and biopsy this thursday.

as you can see there is a small circle above, this is where i have supraspinatus tendonosis as well from my mri scan results!

gutted as the myosotis has no cure, just stearoids to controll it.
