The Human body has a set biology and composition. Just like a finger can feel a poke when getting pinched by a needle, it can also feel the same (without a needle) when it's affected by neuropathy. The point is there are many things that can cause injury. Further, it is irrational to think that...

Reduced amplitude refers to axonal injury and is often associated with neuropathies and compression injuries. F-wave latencies are considered less important, and F-waves are the only parameter in nerve conduction studies particularly useful for the diagnosis of proximal nerve lesions.

If after 7+- months of tongue symptoms you are able to function clinically normally, then NO Bulbar concerns should be present.

To elaborate on Yuliasar's response:According to ALSTDI, muscle ultrasonography (NMUS) is being utilized to identify fasciculations in at least four muscles, and increased fibrosis (muscle echogenicity) in two muscles. Ultrasonography differentiated between MND and mimics with 96% sensitivity...

I'm sorry if the post offended you. I thought it was positive.

The study points to correlation and not causation. Further, it does not state that only MND results from such activity.

According to NIH, the most important observation was that absent fibrillations in the first dorsal interosseus and deltoid muscles identified benign conditions with sensitivities of 66%-77% and a specificity of 93%. Further, greater spontaneous activity levels were observed in upper trapezius...

TwitchBFS is on point. His approach is/was exactly mine. I was positive for Celiac Disease via blood tests. Should I do that test you did too, or is it unnecessary? TwitchBFS, please click my signature and advise if I may have missed something.Thanks.

I remain as convinced as you do about the matter. My comment is not a mandate. I am merely suggesting an elimination diet. If it works, then it lends credence to my claims or at least confirms an adverse effect. I have Celiac Disease, so I can't defend grains.

You don't have to take my word for it on grains. I've read extensively on the matter. Read the book, "Wheat Belly". Informed by cutting-edge science and nutrition, along with case studies from men and women who have experienced life-changing transformations in health after waving goodbye to...

I have everything you describe. I recommend reducing refined carbohydrates, such as grains and sugar. Grains are incompatible with human digestion because we lack the digestive apparatus of ruminants that allow their digestion. Further, elevated sugar and insulin inhibit absorption of essential...

Thanks.

Hi All,I will no longer be posting here. All my posts will be in the BFSRecovery.com forum, which include updates and additions to my posts here.Regards.

Earlier research on celiac disease (CD) and neuropathy has been hampered by the use of inpatient data, low study power, and lack of neuropathic characteristics. It was decided to examine the relative risk and absolute risk of developing neuropathy in a nationwide population-based sample of...

Don't worry about it. Many things cause problems with anything you have to do with your body - anxiety is #1 culprit. Read my posts, and search the site for different accounts. Read here too:

Good post. I've listed other causes of twitching here:

Great to know. Thank you for clearing it up. Funny how I get called out on the "wrong" information and get "silence" on the good information. Just saying.

So of the up to 14% of BFS'ers that developed MND (average over 45 years of age), how many false positives could there have been?

CREATINE DEFICIENCY SYNDROME (CDS) SYMPTOMSSymptoms can include, but are not limited to, speech difficulty, fatigue, pyramidal and/or extra-pyramidal manifestations, brisk reflexes, seizures and movement disorders, such as essential tremors, cramps and/or spasms and fasciculations.CAUSESIn...

Thanks. This is the latest, related update associated with my BFS: Your post raises my anxiety, but I knew about the link already.Regards
