My mother was diagnosed on 3/30/09 with MND. The only test she had done previous to this was a MRI. The neurologist saw her just once and diagnosed her from her symptoms and the MRI. Am I wrong or should she have had other tests before being told she had MND? Yesterday she had the EMG done and that doctor told her everything else had to be ruled out before they could diagnose it as MND. He also wants her to get a MRI of her neck. Now we are wondering if this is MND or some other form of nerve disease. I thought her neuro was rushing things by diagnosing this without any other testing, but Ifigured she knew better than I did about this. Any input from anyone would be helpful. And once again, thank you for your help.
