Myositis – which can affect adults and children – is a progressive inflammatory muscle disease leading to weakness, muscle loss, fatigue, and sometimes to skin, heart and lung involvement. Myositis is a pooling of different disease and/or symptoms. The public should be made aware of myositis and the disease should be brought into the focus of research and medicine.
