Myositis is a rare disease in which the immune system chronically
inflames the bodys own healthy muscle tissue. No one knows what triggers the immune
systems attack. Persistent inflammation progressively weakens the muscles. Myositis
can take several forms, usually develops slowly over time and can range in severity from
mild to debilitating or worse. Both children and adults can get it.
