EMG
Appears to be abnormalities in multiple regions with FIB, PSW, increased ease of recruitment and small amp MUP's. Suspected myopathy, but from my research this seems more like MND findings.
Note: EMG was done after Muscle Biopsy sample was taken, but before biopsy report was released.
Muscle Biopsy
Denervation atrophy with reinnervation. Specifically ruled out myopathy. My research indicates this could point to an MND in the absence of differential diagnosis.
Clinical Correlation
Will the deciding factor in the eventual diagnosis be the clinical correlation in this situation?
I am seeing a Neuromuscular specialist in two weeks, but would appreciate the insights from this community.
Thank you for your time.
