I posted here a couple of months ago and promised I would not post again until my EMG was performed. I just got verbal results from my doctor saying the test was normal!
He did observe the fasciculations I've been having, but said the test was otherwise normal.
I just want to thank all the...
My MIL started showing symptoms in June 2018. It started with back pain and slurred speech and progressed from there. In August she needed a cane to walk, and by September a walker. We had began seeking answers from her PCP and a Neurologist who couldn't give us any answers. The only thing...

Finally, here.
I have been a longtime lurker. I have been tempted to ask questions, but ultimately I decided to wait. And I waited for a long time. Having been finally diagnosed, I will let you know how everything began.
In the spring of 2016, I started noticing some problems with my left...
Hello everyone.
I come back with an update about genetic test.
They found CACNB4 gene mutations on my father with CACNB4 variants: NM_001330115,: exon6,: c.G518A,: p.R173Q, Chr2. That's a autosome dominant and I'm 75% able to carry a mutant. I'm currently waiting for my own genetic test results...
