Well, how did your EMG go? I've been waiting for the good news.

Yea man he said no denervation and the wave lengths from fasciculations were normal. Said it all looks benign. Going to ask for a civilian second opinion but those are a few months out. Looks like I’ve done all I can and now all I can do is monitor my strength and wait, time will tell.

My only lingering symptom worrying me is difficulty swallowing saliva and have to cough up saliva now and again. Already had an endoscopy and said they didn’t see anything. The other is my right thumb seems to twitch like crazy but very intermittently

Saw your newest post. Sorry that it's still going on for you, brother. When you say you can't move your toes, can you literally not move your toes or just not move them well? Personally, I'd stabilize the toe by holding the join and try to press down with the toe. Should give you a decent idea of the truth of the matter.
