I wanted to give a small update. My thread is closed from last year.
2011-I was sent to a als clinic last year and was told I was fine. Increased reflexes in knee 3+ and ankle 2+.
My hometown neuro wanted me to do a year evaluation at the als clinic again so I went back this past July.
2012-I have increased reflexes in lower and upper extremities and a + hoffman on the RT. Everything else was good. She told me there is nothing wrong and I have anxiety, which she is right about that.
I had my second emg in August which my doctor saw 'spikes' as she called it. She told me to relax my arm, which I was. I was very nervous and started asking a lot of questions.
She is sending me for a second opinion because she said she does not know if I am ok, but her emg report does say; No abnormal insertional or sustained abnormal spontaneous activities. Impression: No evidence at this time. Which that is good. (I must add she is a new doctor so that is why she is sending me for a second opinion)
My hometown neuro believes there is UMN issues.
I am going for my second opinion today and I am feeling very nervous so I wanted to write and reintroduce myself.
