Thanks for the input Laurie. They have diagnosed me PMA but I have not had much luck getting any input on how to deal with PMA or how to preserve myself and still maintain somewhat normal lifestyle. I work Construction remodeling homes and after a low key day which normally would be a easy day followed up by a gym session. I’m left after work not recovering for a day and a half and no gym at all.To be clear, Shawn, the muscle biopsy would not be diagnostic (though it could be suggestive) for PMA, which is a motor neuron, not a muscle disease. I trust also that you had a second opinion after the PMA diagnosis. While your dx is not the topic of this thread, we also like to be precise for those not yet diagnosed.
Also, the advice in MND is not to exercise to exhaustion, as the motor neurons that have not yet died, only have so much "current" left.
Best,
Laurie
