I'm just getting this off my chest. It's messed up to pick apart someone going though this and practically make them prove by posting their records what their Dr. is telling them. I came back here for help because as the neuro said and I confirmed with pcm today that from previous tests(emg...

I was only told 82% for whatever he was concerned with he read through lots of stuff. I'll figure this out on my own. Please delete this. I'm sorry I bothered you all.

I sort of feel unwelcome but wanted to post an update in case anyone had suggestions to share about how to navigate these processes. I saw my PCM for the the PFT results today. My lung volume whatever test was 82%. No evidence of copd or that it's from asthma. His words were that he sees it...

So, I am not here for twitching. I never suspected ALS until my PT mentioned needing to see neurology/ortho for a muscle biopsy. I tore my gastrocnemius in May. It is not healing. Not responding to PT. I have lost an inch of muscle mass in the last 5 weeks in that calf. I was told...
