The doctor says he cannot rule out ALS at this time but he also cannot explain my husband's symptoms. So we have been in limbo for quite some time. The conclusion of the EMG report says:
This study was abnormal. NCS was normal except for mildly small superficial peroneal SNAP amplitude. EMG showed active denervation in the right arm muscles and one thoracic paraspinal muscle. Fasciculation was seen in the right arm and leg muscles. Chronic neurogenic changes were seen the right arm muscles. These results are insufficient to diagnose motor neuron disease though being in its early phase can not be ruled out. The study showed no findings to suggest peripheral neuropathy to explain his condition. Clinical correlation is recommended.
