Cassy, all I can say with any degree of certainty is that with

regard to the EMG, this I do know, that the more it hurts, the

more nerves are still functioning. If those nerves had died,

there would be NO pain. That is the positive aspect, and is

the best that I can come up with. Thank you for telling us all

that you did. Keep on posting, but rest up, now.

Love to you, and to all being diagnosed practically to pieces!

My Doctor Update

Hey Everyone!!!! ! I had my EMG appointment today but they ended up doing a bunch of other tests too.It was a long horrible day and if I new it would have been so bad I wouldnt have gone.lol.I was ther from 1:20-4:00!!! !! Horrible day.:( First they re-did the Ischemic test(according to them they do it more then my cardio) and I got the results while I was there and the Lactic Acid and Ammonia were ok.One of them did say they were re-doing it because 2 enzymesshowed and that is very very rare.He said it was still possible but not very likely.Weird though how 2 showed butthen today not even one????Makes no sense to me.I am concerned.He did it alot different then my cardio did.He didnt put a blood pressure monitor on first,and that is to exercise the arm(I diddnt realize at the time,my mind was full and scared of all the tests they

said we were doing) I am very weak and I think this would make a huge difference.Then he had me squeeze this metal device(to measure your strength) over and over in a row,then from there the nurse drew my blood 4 times.When my cardio did it it wassoooooo different.He did the IV line,used the b?p cuff,and had me squeeze the device between blood takes.So,according to the test it is not an enzyme deficiency.I dont know about this,I read about the Ischemic test and I reallydont think this is right.I am going to email my cardio and ask for his help. Then they did a nerve conduction,only for about an hour and a half!!!! There is something wrong in my foot and leg area. They were baffled,it was 3 of them.Anyway,the doc I seen last time in the neuro-musc. clinic kept saying there is something in there,he said it a few times,and then he told me he thinks its

a type of annomoly,maybe something to do with the way my nerves are.The other doc said it took so long because they havnt quite seen(why does this keep happening to me?ARGH) something like this before. It really hurt,I have little bruises werethey pushed into my skin to shock me. After that was the EMG,Finally! !!!!Lol!! ! It hurt so bad I screamed and cried like a baby. They did my arm onceand then my legs about 2 maybe 3 times.It was definetly not that bad when my old neuro did it.He says the results forthat one is ok.Then the docs went and talked (did this alot in the room and hallway) then my doc came back and asked if I wasup for 1 more test.LOL!!! I said NO,why? Lolol.So,he says he was looking in this book and found this test to check the sympathetic system.I guess it looks at dymelinating and myelinating and also something in the

nervous system for autonomic dysfunction. If only they new what they were doing!LOLOL, Im hoping im wrong!!!LOL! So,thatwas a lil shocker thing too but he says it will take a couple days to interpret the results.My doc said he had clearedthe afternoon for me because im special.HarHar. LOL.! He was nice though to say I had the choice but he thought it would be easier on me so I wouldnt have to keep going back.He was right,cuz if I had known I wouldnthave gone at all.lol. I just dont know.:( I dont really have confidence in this doc.I feel like a guinea pig with him,more so then with anyoneelse ever.I was and still am so confident in my cardio,I really trust and respect him.But all this is beyond him sothats why he sent me there.He did say I was too see a Dr.Mc but I have been seeing a Dr.Hahn instead.I guessthese 2 are the only ones there in the specialty and pretty much for all of my

area.He always brings another doc andalso a resident,so at least there is a few more opinions.Well, I think this is about it,until everything I forgot comes back.LOL!!!!I hope you all are well.I am going to try and catch up a bit before bed.Miss ya guys!!!!!Luv n hugz,Cassy

Thanks n!!!! LOL! I liked that,love to all being diagnosed to pieces!!LOL<

the nerve conduction did not hurt much at all,most of those areas are numb,

it is were they pushed so hard to get a response that hurt,or tried to get a

response anyway.The muscle part of the test is what hurt the most,I swear

the lady went to my bone.I felt the needle go through and pushed way down then

it wouldnt go any more and hurt like hell.and of course it made my body jerk,

pushing the needle further.The one in my upper left thigh was not bad andneither

was behind my knees.They were doing behind my knees over and over.

He did say he dos not think its a muscle problem but not sure on the nerves

yet.Being numb comes in handy sometimes!!!!!!!!! Thanks n for always

being so supportive!!!! Thanks everyone!!!

else ever.I was and still am so confident in my cardio,I really trust and respect him.But all this is beyond him sothats why he sent me there.He did say I was too see a Dr.Mc but I have been seeing a Dr.Hahn instead.I guess

these 2 are the only ones there in the specialty and pretty much for all of my area.He always brings another doc andalso a resident,so at least there is a few more opinions.Well,I think this is about it,until everything I forgot comes back.LOL!!!!

Hey Everyone!!!!!

I had my EMG appointment today but they ended up doing a bunch of

other tests too.It was a long horrible day

and if I new it would have been so bad I wouldnt have gone.lol.Iwas

ther from 1:20-4:00!!!!! Horrible day.:(

First they re-did the Ischemic test(according to them they do it more

then my cardio) andI got the results while I

was there and the Lactic Acid and Ammonia were ok.One of them did say

they were re-doing it because 2 enzymes

showed and that is very very rare.He said it was still possible but not

very likely.Weird though how 2 showed but

then today not even one????Makes no sense to me.

I am concerned.He did it alot different then my cardio did.Hedidnt put

a blood pressure monitor on first,and that is to

exercise the arm(I diddnt realize at the time,my mind was full and

scared of all the tests they said we were doing) I

am very weak and I think this would make a huge difference.Then he had

me squeeze this metal device(to measure

your strength) over and over in a row,then from there the nurse drew my

blood 4 times.When my cardio did it it was

soooooo different.He did the IV line,used the b?p cuff,and had me

squeeze the device between blood takes.So,

according to the test it is not an enzymedeficiency.I dont know about

this,I read about the Ischemic test and I really

dont think this is right.I am going to email my cardio and askfor his

help.

Then they did a nerve conduction,only for about an hour and a half!!!!

There is somethingwrong in my foot and

leg area. They were baffled,it was 3 of them.Anyway,

the doc I seen last time in the neuro-musc. clinic kept saying there is

something in there,he said it a few times,and

then he told me he thinks its a type of annomoly,maybe something to do

with the way my nerves are.

The other doc said it took so long because they havnt quite seen

(why does this keep happening to me?ARGH) somethinglike this before.It

really hurt,I have little bruises were

they pushed into my skin to shock me.

After that was the EMG,Finally!!!!!Lol!!! It hurt so bad I screamed

and cried like a baby. They did my arm once

and then my legs about 2 maybe 3 times.It was definetly not that bad

that one is ok.

My Doctor Update

Hey Everyone!!!!! I had my EMG appointment today but they ended up doing a bunch of other tests too.It was a long horrible day and if I new it would have been so bad I wouldnt have gone.lol.I was ther from 1:20-4:00!!!!! Horrible day.:( First they re-did the Ischemic test(according to them they do it more then my cardio) and I got the results while I was there and the Lactic Acid and Ammonia were ok.One of them did say they were re-doing it because 2 enzymesshowed and that is very very rare.He said it was still possible but not very likely.Weird though how 2 showed butthen today not even one????Makes no sense to me.I am concerned.He did it alot different then my cardio did.He didnt put a blood pressure monitor on first,and that is to exercise the arm(I diddnt realize at the time,my mind was full and scared of all the tests they said we were doing) I am very weak and I think this would make a huge difference.Then he had me squeeze this metal device(to measure your strength) over and over in a row,then from there the nurse drew my blood 4 times.When my cardio did it it wassoooooo different.He did the IV line,used the b?p cuff,and had me squeeze the device between blood takes.So,according to the test it is not an enzyme deficiency.I dont know about this,I read about the Ischemic test and I reallydont think this is right.I am going to email my cardio and ask for his help. Then they did a nerve conduction,only for about an hour and a half!!!! There is something wrong in my foot and leg area. They were baffled,it was 3 of them.Anyway,the doc I seen last time in the neuro-musc. clinic kept saying there is something in there,he said it a few times,and then he told me he thinks its a type of annomoly,maybe something to do with the way my nerves are.The other doc said it took so long because they havnt quite seen(why does this keep happening to me?ARGH) something like this before. It really hurt,I have little bruises werethey pushed into my skin to shock me. After that was the EMG,Finally!!!!!Lol!!! It hurt so bad I screamed and cried like a baby. They did my arm onceand then my legs about 2 maybe 3 times.It was definetly not that bad when my old neuro did it.He says the results forthat one is ok.Then the docs went and talked (did this alot in the room and hallway) then my doc came back and asked if I wasup for 1 more test.LOL!!! I said NO,why? Lolol.So,he says he was looking in this book and found this test to check the sympathetic system.I guess it looks at dymelinating and myelinating and also something in the nervous system for autonomic dysfunction.If only they new what they were doing!LOLOL,Im hoping im wrong!!!LOL! So,thatwas a lil shocker thing too but he says it will take a couple days to interpret the results.My doc said he had clearedthe afternoon for me because im special.HarHar.LOL.! He was nice though to say I had the choice but he thought it would be easier on me so I wouldnt have to keep going back.He was right,cuz if I had known I wouldnthave gone at all.lol. I just dont know.:( I dont really have confidence in this doc.I feel like a guinea pig with him,more so then with anyoneelse ever.I was and still am so confident in my cardio,I really trust and respect him.But all this is beyond him sothats why he sent me there.He did say I was too see a Dr.Mc but I have been seeing a Dr.Hahn instead.I guessthese 2 are the only ones there in the specialty and pretty much for all of my area.He always brings another doc andalso a resident,so at least there is a few more opinions.Well,I think this is about it,until everything I forgot comes back.LOL!!!!I hope you all are well.I am going to try and catch up a bit before bed.Miss ya guys!!!!!Luv n hugz,Cassy
