In April I said, "I would ask for a copy of the NCS and EMG reports—not just the doctor’s summary, but the whole report."
Did you get the reports? Which muscles showed insertional activity, spontaneous fibrillations, fasciculations? Which showed abnormal MUPS? On the NCS which muscles showed slowed velocity or reduced CMAP?
"decreased nerve signal to my muscles" is not a term I have seen in an EMG. Did she mean you had a decreased CMAP? In which muscles? Axonal loss could be due to a number of other diseases. Or did she mean decresaed velocity? Demyelination could be due to a number of diseases, many of which are treatable.
