EMG Reliability: Experiences Shared

[LaurentHCH]

Hej thereWe should maybe collect everything you have been told on the reliability of emg by your neurovisit.- Mine, a younger doctor, from the swiss als-clinic said, they would see motorunitpotenzials even prior to the fascics and that i don't nee a 2nd emg...any other sayings on this from your neuro?

At my first appointment, I went to the ***specialist wth my emg done after five days or less of twitching. My emg showed some fascics in hallucs aductor in feet and some giant mups in one of the arches of my feet. He did a very extensive clinical and he asured me that i did not have ***.When I asked for the giant mups in my emg. he said that feet have a lot of damadje and as it was only in my feet he wasn`t conserned. He said that as I have some calcium things. I mean I lost calcium from my bones through my rins(hipercalciuria) and although my calcemia is ok he suggested that I should test my ion calcium by an endocrinologist, but I did`nt.I went to another appointement 9 months later , he made a new clinical . he said I don`t have ***. he didn`t even asked me for a new emg. he suggested that I could have RLS because most of my simpsomps are centred in my feet.he gave me some medicine and suggested an iron treatment which I began but didn`t finish. Regarding to *** he said that I have the same chances to have an MND like him.
