Hi,
Please don't block or ban me. I promise that I wont disturb you and I am here only to ask valid questions. Somehow I was misunderstood last time and I was blocked.
First of all Thank you all for the help.
History :
2006 - Right leg weakness
2006 - 2017- guess very slowly growing weakness( Have not observed as unidentifiable).
2017 - small and visible atrophy. Guess No clinical weakness.
Able to do everything but tiring on right side.
Neurologist initial notes :
Subjective right side weakness. Patient says EMG,MRI in 2006 is clean. suggested repeat EMG/MRI brain.
Attached are the EMG results
(removed)
Looks like a normal EMG, but I have the following questions:
I have a REAL weakness on right side which I can feel and I have body wide fasciculations now. When I sleep last night I had fasscis at many places. Surprised that EMG has not picked them.
I may not have ALS, but with the results above and symptoms, what your experience and knowledge point this to is very helpful to me.
I heard and read about "Wright" on this forum. Hope he shed some light on the specific numbers above in the EMG/NCV.
Currently I am taking Vitamin B12 and Neuro suggested a follow up in next June.
Thank you.
