    I saw your thread but am not good at interpreting emgs. What causes did your neuro mention? I'm from Germany. They only tested right arm and leg which is a shame. I'll do the Fees next week and see what they detect. Though the wait and see approach is horrible.

    That's a shame I hoped for it. The ENT found out that my throat muscles are paralyzed via video endoscopy. Consulting an ENT might be helpful with bulbar symptoms. They also can do a FEES to check your swallowing muscles. The neuro can't emg them. I have another neuro appointment and will ask...

I was hoping for NFL as a new biomarker but you are totally right, it seems to be studied here too so...

    Hi Lesley, at least the emg didn't show anything. Did they mention another cause for the atrophy or only ALS? It's good news that the lung test war fine. Are you seen again? I know the long wait is emotionally hard but I hope that it's enough time to find out what Is wrong. Kind regards, Kiki
