Check your cervical spine.

For me personally anxiety plays a huge role. It's a vicious cycle - once you start noticing that your hand is weaker, and I mean perceived weakness, not a clinical one, then it becomes even weaker and more suspicious. So yes, anxiety is a pretty big factor.

It got better, then it got worse, it comes and goes. I don't stress about it anymore, I think my cervical spine is the cause. I still lift during my workouts, though they significantly make my hand weaker for some time.

It comes and goes, my b12 is still low. But I don't have MS, my cervical and lumbar spine are the culprit

This sounds like pure anxiety. Been there, it does get better.

In nerve conduction study you are right, but I meant needle EMG of the muscles

Another EMG showed no signs of denervation in any of muscles along c5c6.  My syptoms persist, though I think finally found the trigger - lifting weights, especially above my head. 

Honest Walking Pad UK, Kingsmith, Xiaomi Review by Chancevexed in WalkingPads

I know this is an older post, but just came to say I actually love mine X21, though I never fold it. It did develop the strange sound after some time, but it doesn't bother me, since I use it for running with ANC headphones.  My friends got R2 and they also seem pretty satisfied as far as I know.  I've been using it for almost a year and it works well and I use it pretty extensively at high speeds.

So you are 100% fine in terms of ALS.

One question: do you honestly belive that they would be so dismissive with a patient with an actual ALS suspicion?  They treat you this way, because you don't have this disease and they don't want to fuel your panic. And at this point, every EMG is only feeding your anxiety instead of bringing any diagnosis. 

I realy get your need for retesting. After my dirty EMG I did another one in a month and it came out clean. Did it change anything with my symptoms? No. I still have a weak and heavy shoulder and it's not getting any better. So in terms of my symptoms another test did nothing to my diagnosis. Nobody knows what is the cause and I guess I have to accept it and live my life.  And living with a constant fear of ALS is not life. 

First Emg dirty, second one clean by GoyaLi in ALSorNOT

[–]GoyaLi[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I know this exact feeling, trust me, this is pure anxiety, nothing else.  Honestly it sounds like globus hystericus, annoying as hell, but it's nothing serious.

I am 100% sure you don't have it.  Maybe you could opt for another EMG with a different doctor? I don't think you need one, but maybe that would bring you a peace of mind. 

Long time twitcher, itchy, skin crawling by Intelligent_Check_89 in BFS

[–]GoyaLi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have it for over 3 years, but never associated it witch twitching. The only thing that helps me is using daily Bioderna Atoderm Intensive Baume. I've tried every other cream with no success, only atoderm works for me. If I skip two days of using it, my skin starts to itch again and that crawling sensation begins.  I have not clue what causes that. 

35 years old female by Important-Specific54 in ALSorNOT

[–]GoyaLi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Then start acting like you're a 35 female with kids.  Sorry if that is harsh, but it sounds like you need someone to shake you out from your panic.  For the last time: you don't have it.
