Hi,
I've bee having weakness in both of my quads and left arm, and it started with balance issues 3 months back (I can't lift the same weight at the gym, and it's hard to walk). Also, I have hyporeflexia in my arms and hyperreflexia in my knees, but they are symmetric.
I've seen a als specialist and a neuro; the specialist thinks I'm okay, and the neuro did not say one way or the other; he says “today you do not have as;” anyway, I had an emg last Thursday which came back clean, but the numbers look low based on a google.
And I had major symptoms prior to the emg; I wanted to see what people thought because after reading some threads, it seems like people really know what they are talking about.
Also, I had ever other test to rule out other things.
Thank you for your comments.
