Hi everyone,
I posted a couple of months back about having a year of symptoms including left side weakness, limp, fasciculations (primarily in left arm), and grabbing things differently with my left hand. I have had blood tests and two MRIs which have both come back normal. I have an appt scheduled for later this month for an EMG and the wait is having me anxious.
I have a few questions regarding symptoms as well as what to expect...
1. Has anyone with Als had symptoms develop on one side in both limbs (left arm and leg) at the same time?
2. Does anyone have muscles soreness after working out on affected side? (After a workout, my right side will feel fine the next day, but my muscles on my left side are very sore) making my limp more pronounced.
3. What will the emg feel like and what should I make sure to ask the neurologist? I really hope to find some answers as after over a year of symptoms I am getting frustrated and anxious.
