So the Duke ALS Clinic called and said they were moving my initial appointment with them up by two weeks; great news!
Then they said they wanted to start with another EMG and nerve conduction study; not so great news! Dang!
I'd rather have my pancreas rubbed with a file than have them do either of those things again, especially when the EMG folks do the tongue portion of their test. Some fun there!
So Dumb Question (DQ) #485... did others here have these procedures repeated at the ALS Clinic, or did I win another 1-in-50,000 lottery?
This will be the third time in 4 months, but no matter how much I hate these things, I'll "shut up and color" and do what the doctors say.
