Hi,
Maybe someone on this forum can help me decipher my EMG...i was supposed to have it read by my Neuro today, but the clinic failed to forward a copy to him...so i went and got it myself...
it seems i have three muscles-two in the left foot and one on the right foot with 'abnormalities'...i have 'fib' of 2+ and PSW 2+ and then on the amplitude it says Large in the two muscles in the left foot and 1+ fib and 2+PSW on the right foot.
The right and left sural and superficial peroneal sensory responses are normal.
The peroneal cmap amplitudes are reduced on the left. The needle electrode exam showed abnormal spontaneous activity in distal foot muscles...(i am quoting what was written here).
The motor ncs shows a few numbers in bold under Lat.ms and Amp mv... none of this makes sense to me... except i know fibrillations are supposed to be bad news, am i right?
there are F waves listed at 54 and 58 and 54...
None of this makes sense to me and i don't know what to make of it and won't see the neuro for another month.
thank you
