    Change in symptoms

    The doctor said it was strange (I don't remember if he specifically uses the word abnormal), especially because when he checked my reflexes last year, they were diminished. Bloodwork was all normal, the first thing they checked was the thyroid. This weird indentation in the stomach is...

    I DEFINITELY have atrophy/fasciculationss and had MRI - advice needed please

    Yes, that's very obviously atrophied...I don't blame you at all for being scared and worried, I would be too. You definitely need to see a neurologist as soon as possible and request an EMG and nerve conduction test of the tongue. I'm not sure what hypoglossal nerve palsy is, but a quick...
