    Advice on symptoms - "weak" leg & twitching

    Thanks so much Laurie, that's very clear. I received the report from my neurologist but it seems just to be the summary report not the detailed ones I see everyone else produce. His secretary advised this was the only report he received. I have attached the bulk of the summary report. I...

I won't have the official report for a few weeks until I see my neuro but I was told the EMG was normal and textbook. Obviously I was delighted with this, but my follow up question was that I...

    Advice on symptoms - "weak" leg & twitching

    Thanks Nikki I should have provided an update on that post as I can see that doesn't tie in with today's post. On your advices, I did go to my PCP with the right arm weakness that came on suddenly. He advised that it was likely to have been caused by compression on the nerve the night before...

    Thank you for your response, I’ll take your advice and will be beyond delighted if I get clear emg. I can make the movement with nothing in my hand as but not if I hold something in my hand. I thought I could bend my lower arm with nothing in my hand As it’s not using the muscle in upper arm...

    Advice on symptoms - "weak" leg & twitching

    Hi Again I know you asked for me not to post until after EMG but I had some alarming new symptoms last night/this am that are sending me off a cliff edge and I don't know if there is anything I can do other than wait for my emg. Out of the blue last night my right upper arm seemed to "go...

    Advice on symptoms - "weak" leg & twitching

    Laurie, Vincent, Al and any others Can I ask you, if you don't mind, were the first symptoms for you all failure of a limb i.e. retrospectively, you didn't notice any tiredness, twitching or weak or funny "feelings " in a limb that showed some signs of atrophy?

    Advice on symptoms - "weak" leg & twitching

    Hi Laurie I just noticed a typo in my first message in case it makes any difference - the weakness that I have felt is in my right lower leg/foot, the one where the atrophy and twitching is (not my left!) Thanks

    Advice on symptoms - "weak" leg & twitching

    Thanks for your quick response Laurie and your positivity, I really appreciate it. Reading between the lines, I guess you are saying, there is a possibility this could be something else but also the possibility that it could be ALS? I have read alot on this forum and know that twitching and...
