As I wait to go back to a neuro (mine became ill so I'm waiting), I continue to see my GP every 2 weeks. Today, he did some strength and coordination tests, talked about blood work and the ENT report (the one from the guy last week who told me I most likely have als...but I digress), then he did 2 little tests. One was Babinski and the other was Hoffmann. He said "You passed both of those with flying colors." Here's my question:
With all the sophistocated tests such as EMG and NCV yet to be done, should I take anything positive from these simple little office tests (Babinski and Hoffmann) or are they practically insignificant?
