Hello,
I am a 23 year old healthy male. Was evaluated by a neurologist yesterday for an unrelated issue. Upon my neuro exam, he noted that I had hyperreflexia in both of my legs. He mentioned the possibility of myelopathy but also said there's a 90:10 chance that it's normal for my reflexes. He ordered a cervical/thoracic MRI which I am having done this upcoming Monday.
How severe does this sound? He mentioned the possibility of MS and ALS, so that got me a little worried. Any words to put my mind at ease are appreciated.
Thank you.
