Hello everybody, Now question is about me. I've go pretty confused today as long story short neurologist from Neuromuscular Clinic during clinical exam diagnosed me with pyramidal signs. Left slight Babinsky and asymmetrical reflexes, some of them diminished. It's confusing as another...

I think your neuro is over reacting, for EMG to be conclusive it needs to have specific pattern like this: http://www.wfnals.org/downloads/A%20revision%20of%20the%20El%20Escorial%20criteria%202015.pdf Basically you need specific changes in few spinal regions which you don't have, also signs of...

I have on privileges to post publically, but I've seen your EMG and it has absolutely nothing to do with ALS. Criterias are strict and you don't meet any, 1+ fib in 2 places is nothing and statistical background noise, otherwise EMG is completely normal. You cannot consider it dirty EMG, you're...

This makes a lot of sense, thank you again for your opinion.

Laurie - obviously you're right, it has better survival rate in 5 years window, my point was he's at his 4 years with very little progression so he's luckily looking for more then that and this seems pretty rare Lenore - thank you for your comment. This is very comforting, it seem that...

Thank you for your opinion, I always value it. I've must made the mistake thinking of disorders like PMA that is said to have 33% survival rate in 5 years, flail arm would fit perfectly besides I though UMN involvement is seen and that differents it from pure LMN syndromes SMBA is easy genetic...

Welcome, I've been on the forum here some time ago asking about my case. Until now I'm pretty much confident I have Benign Fasciculation Syndrome, Idiopathic Fasciculations, you name it. (I never self-diagnosed ALS though, it was a concern of my neurologist, as I had spontaneous activity...

That's a good news, I hope to get cleared as well, take care

Thank you both, that part was indeed confusing and now is clear, that's exactly what top neurologist like Martin Turner said about changes in strong limbs and I also found that idea in some studies I will try to follow up with the same neurologist to check for changes, I can't self exam but from...

Hello everybody I hope this is my last post here, it's been a bumpy ride trough last half year by I'm getting over my fear of mnd My symptoms that are consistent with fasciculations, jerks and spasm are not any better, in reality they are worse No weakness or any other signs of als I'm just...
