HI, everyone this is Sammantha.......... I want everyones opionion on something. If you know my history i have had an abnormal EMG and normal one. I have brisk reflexes and muscle wasting.... I have had bad experiences with Neurologists at a particular place and all the while i have been sending my test information to a neuromuscular specialist at Duke Hospital N.C. He said he would see me right away back in June, but i still had a lot of testing planned at another hospital. I sent my recent normal EMG results to him and he said, AGAIN my advice is to come to the clinic, we can get you in next week....... Now should i go and know whether or not for sure, or should i do the wait and see what happens approach my other neurologist wants to do????? What should i do i am so confused??????????? My signs/symptoms are progressing but very slowly....

GO,

You needed to be seeing a specalist a long time ago.

GO ASAP, it could be something treatable.

rgds,

I agree with Jamie. You are very young and have kids. You don't want to miss out on possible treatment.
