I am just trying to figure out how to post to the different forums. I was just diagnosed....at least I think I am diagnosed. The Dr who did the emg said he thought I had als, though it was not totally conclusive and the Dr. I saw yesterday said he was almost 100 percent certain that it was als and is now sending me to the als specialists in Vandy. Im kind of stunned and still trying to tell myself that it was overdoses of statins or anything else but this. He (the Dr.) said it wasnt statins but how can he tell since I have only had normal blood tests and the cpk test was flubbed by the lab. I have drop foot on my left leg and both legs are kinda weak. Everything else seems to be working ok so far though I get tired really fast. I am not usually a complainer so sorry if this sounds like a whine...Just trying to get though the shock.
