    ATM I've only had thenar twitching and asimmetry, it's no real atrophy. So I guess it's benign?

    Atrophy + Twitches (UPDATE)

    I was scared because of the alteration in recruitment, fibs,etc. Along with the persistent fine twitching and the fact I've started to drop thing with my hands. But I'll guess I have to seek a neuromuscular specialist to confirm the diagnosis (I doubt my neurosurgeon could sort this out). I...

    Atrophy + Twitches (UPDATE)

    The EMG finally arrived a couple of hours ago, I'm in shock. As I've stated before, this study doesn't have a chart like my previous EMG of the legs, Just the text report done by a neurophysiologist. The rest is just waves unreadable to me (I'll post one anyway) I'm pretty scared from what I...

    Atrophy + Twitches (UPDATE)

    I've got the EMG done. I'd like to point out 3 things, for DIHALS to notice in case some read this in the future, to get a full picture, in case some of your DIHALS symptoms resembles mine. 1 I didn't get a nerve conduction study along. I don't know why, maybe it's because I pay this off my...

    Atrophy + Twitches (UPDATE)

    Yes, I still have fasiculations in pretty much the 4 limbs (upper arms, hands, tighs and calves), but they've started to get localized on my supposedly atrophied muscle, and also in my thumbs lately, that right thumb gets stiff too. I've also noticed I get weakness just from holding my...

    Atrophy + Twitches (UPDATE)

    @ Clearwater AL Thanks for your quick and useful response. Yes, i've read of that sign too, but since my thenar eminence is starting to look odd in comparison with the other one.... I'll have to wait to the EMG next week. But I'll truly hope you're right. Best wishes.

    Atrophy + Twitches (UPDATE)

    @ThroughThatValley Thanks, what it keeps me nervous is that most of the twitching have focalized on that area. Specially after I've used the thumb. Thank you for your useful response. And yes I'll keep you guys informed

    Atrophy + Twitches (UPDATE)

    @Bestfriendstilltheend My concerns are because of maybe it could be an early presentation of the disease. I'ts pretty worrisome to me that coincidentally most of the fasciculations are in that sunken or atrophied area of the base of my thumb. The fasciculations get worse after I've used the...

    Atrophy + Twitches (UPDATE)

    Ok, thanks Karen. Yes I can still do all of those things I guess. Fair well, I'll post the EMG until then, so please don't close the thread.

    Atrophy + Twitches (UPDATE)

    I'm sorry, I'd like to adress this as an update, but my previous thread was close. (For anyone new. 25 y.o. male oral surgeon from Mexico) I've been having some issues with my 4 limbs (twitching most noticeably). I was operated on a herniated lumbar disc, that was crushing my left s1 nerve, as...
