Hello, I had an EMG today (39 yo man). My symptoms were constant twitching in left hand muscle of the index finger for the past 4 weeks, then recently also twitches in other part of the left arm. Very rarely some twitches on the right hand and arm , but 99% are on left arm. No loss of strength in this arm from when the twitches started. My results from EMG were the following :
1) Motor responses are normal on the median and ulnar. Weak on the left ulnar median at the level of the wrist.
2) The LD is not elongated
3) Sensitive responses are normal and asymmetrical (weaker on the right on the median)
4) F waves are lengthened on the left ulnar nerve
5) Detection: neurogenic trace in C7-D1 on the left without repository activity
The neurologist said this is not ASL, but I'm a little concerned about the things she found in the left hand and since she didn't speak my language (I'm in a different country) was hard to understand perfectly why this couldn't be ASL . I attached the EMG graphics. Do you think these graphic results exclude the ASL ? Thank you
