Hi
I´m from portugal, i have 25 years old, and i´m afraid of having ALS, i have some symptoms like fasciculations tongue ( when i put my tongue out i can see her shaking/light contractions ), twitching, fasciculations,dizziness ,contractions on my body, my left hand has a slight atrophy, when contract it is most noticeable.
I have made electromyogram (EMG) and nerve conduction testing (NCS) in October 2015 and test came negative, and in january 2016 the neurologist sent me again to neurophysiologist to repeat the test ( the neurologist put in request "suspicion of motor neuron disease" ) and after the teste was complete the doctor wrote no ALS, does EMG and NCS can rule out?
Thanks
ps: sorry for the bad english : )
