Hi Laurie, thank you for your response. May I ask you another question? I noticed on your reply to another thread to “mab” you stated that ulnar neuropathy has a different electrical pattern on the EMG. I just wanted to inquire on what these differences would be and if my results match up with...

Thank you for your reply Nikki.

Yes I was worried about the isolated fib as well as increased insertional activity. Is that common as well?

I do have another question. I am still concerned because I have been unable to find anyone else who has had a similar EMG on this forum and not diagnosed with ALS. It seems that my ulnar nerve line shows both acute and chronic denervation. Is this right? I believe I am reading it correctly. I...

Thank you all for your replies. I really appreciate you taking the time.

Last night I had continuous twitching on the left side of my body, leg, foot, arm and left side of neck. Today that side of the neck feels extremely tight. I started to take Escitalopram today for the first time. Is it possible that these can have a negative effect on me if any of my symptoms...

I just spoke with the doctor and he said in the Summary section under Conduction Studies there is an error and it should read “reduction in amplitude in the left ulnar sensory study”. He feels that this is an ulnar neuropathy that has possibly been there for some time. I told him I was concerned...

Thank you Nikki and Laurie for your reply. I have called the neurologist to get further clarification. He is not a neuromuscular specialist. Are there any specific questions I should be asking him? I’m more worried because I have had soreness in this arm and hand for a few weeks now. The fact...

Yes I was told that but I was concerned because EMG was only conducted in left arm, leg and thoracic paraspinals. It was not conducted on the right side as the NCS was. Also I am concerned about where he states Large MUP. Ulnar shows increased insertion activity, 1 Fib. I don’t understand the...
