    Hey Vicki, sorry I've been pretty swamped lately. I saw the DR at Jon Hopkins and he gave me three options for what it could be: Multifocal Motor Neuropathy, Monomelic Amyotrophy or Progressive Muscular Atrophy (but he is more so thinking the 1st two options!). I did some more blood tests and...

    I'm doing the same. No real change of any type so that is good I think. But still waiting on getting the 2nd opinion; I should have a date for the appt within a week. Military is being pretty slow lol

    Possible MND?

    Yeah, I am still active duty. I'm going to see if my Nurse Case Manager can get me a 2nd opinion at John Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore.

    Possible MND?

    Hmmm, I don't know anything about B1 or B6 levels. I don't really notice any strange smell when I sweat. I don't really sweat from working out but I usually do sweat a lot when I sleep (really annoying actually). I don't have any PTSD for sure so that is good. I don't have my next appt with the...

    Possible MND?

    Would iron damage cause an abnormal EMG test and all the atrophy and nerve damage in my left arm? I definitely didn't eat any fish in Afghanistan cause I've actually never eaten any fish. Thanks for the feedback!

    Possible MND?

    Iron was 107 (supposed to be 45-182) and Iron binding capacity 297 (supposed to be 261-478). Alanine aminotransferase is 15 and should be 17-63.

    Possible MND?

    Hmm, I never even thought of that. My left arm is where I got all my immunizations too. I guess that is a possibility. I'll try and search around for her post/the investigation. Thank you!

    Possible MND?

    Unless it was occurring before I noticed it. I put it off for a little bit because others in my unit were saying it was probably because I'm right handed but when I started being unable to do a lot of things left handed and noticed all the atrophy I decided to go to sick call. I did a blood test...

    Possible MND?

    I was wondering if anyone could help me figure some things out. I was in Afghanistan and over a period of two months started noticing a lot of changes in my body. I'm currently back in the United States in MD. My left bicep is smaller than my right bicep (well actually my entire left side of my...

    I was wondering if anyone could help me figure some things out. I was in Afghanistan and over two months started noticing a lot of changes in my body. My left bicep is smaller than my right bicep (well actually my entire left side of my body is for the most part), my left arm is weak and I have...

    The neurologist said both my EMG/EEG tests (I took them both twice) were abnormal but he wasn't able to provide me with any diagnosis or anything and now I have to do checkups every month to see if I maintain the loss of muscle and function. My left hand has significant atrophy and that is where...

    Accidentally sent that early, I'm sorry. I also feel like using my left hand is getting more difficult and I'm performing badly on all the strength tests especially on my pinky and index finger. I was just wondering if there is any way you can give me any feedback on what is going on? My...
