I apologize, I thought it said do not make a new thread if your thread had already been closed before. To update here: I got a lucky break and my EMG is tomorrow morning instead of September 19th. I'm glad it got moved but now I'm also terrified about what it might show. I'll let you guys know...

They moved my EMG up from September 19th to tomorrow morning ! Not as lucky is that my involuntary finger movements came back today. Slightly different than before but similar feeling. I'm going to attach the video as I managed to catch a few.. Can someone please tell me what these would be...

Thank you! I trust my neurologist and I will take him at his word if he says it's not ALS. I'll be more than happy to know I'm not dying. But I'll never forget the time spent in limbo after my neurologist said it could be ALS and how scary that was and I'll be donating in the hopes that one day...

Hi everyone. I would greatly appreciate your advice. Four months ago out of the blue, the index finger on my dominant hand started moving On its own. It started pulling outward towards my thumb. Only happened three times the first day and I wasn't very concerned. By the weekend I was having...
