Guest guest Posted April 23, 2008 Report Share Posted April 23, 2008 LOLOL And that is the reason they didn't/don't tell you ahead of time... cuz you won't go and have probably told them so! LOLOL {{{{{{{{Cassy}}}}}}}} So, did you have that other test? I'm thinking you did, but I'm wanting to make sure. LOL Love, Challis 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 Get the MapQuest Toolbar, Maps, Traffic, Directions More!

LOLOL Hugs, Challis Re: My Doctor UpdateCassy, I am sending you my prayers. I had a traumatic EMG too. & gt; & gt; & gt; & gt; ??? Hey Everyone!!!! ! & gt; & gt; ???? I had my EMG appointment today but they ended up doing a bunchof other tests too.It was a long horrible day? & gt; 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. & gt; ?First they re-did the Ischemic test(according to them they do itmore then my cardio) and?I got the results while I & gt; ?was there and the Lactic Acid and Ammonia were ok.One of them didsay they were re-doing it because 2 enzymes & gt; showed and that is very very rare.He said it was still possible butnot very likely.Weird though how 2 showed but & gt; then today not even one????Makes no sense to me. & gt; I am concerned.He did it alot different then my cardio did.He?didntput a blood pressure monitor on first,and that is to? & gt; exercise the arm(I diddnt realize at the time,my mind was full andscared of all the tests they said we were doing) I? & gt; am very weak and I think this would make a huge difference.Then hehad me squeeze this metal device(to measure? & gt; your strength) over and over in a row,then from there the nursedrew my blood 4 times.When my cardio did it it was & gt; soooooo different.He did the IV line,used the b?p cuff,and had mesqueeze the device between blood takes.So, & gt; according to the test it is not an enzyme?deficiency. I dont knowabout this,I read about the Ischemic test and I really & gt; dont think this is right.I am going to email my cardio and ask?forhis help. & gt; ?????Then they did a nerve conduction,only for about an hour and ahalf!!!! There is something?wrong in my foot and & gt; ?leg area. They were baffled,it was 3 of them.Anyway, & gt; the doc I seen last time in the neuro-musc. clinic kept sayingthere is something in ?there,he said it a few times,and? & gt; then he told me he thinks its a type of annomoly,maybe something todo with the way my nerves are. & gt; The other doc said it took so long because they havnt quite seen & gt; (why does this keep happening to me?ARGH) something?like thisbefore.?It really hurt,I have little bruises were & gt; they pushed into my skin to shock me.???? & gt; ???? After that was the EMG,Finally! !!!!Lol!! ! It hurt so bad Iscreamed and cried like a baby. They did my arm once & gt; and then my legs about 2 maybe 3 times.It was definetly not thatbad when my old neuro?did it.He says the results for & gt; that one is ok. & gt; Then the docs went and talked (did this alot in the room andhallway) then my doc came back and asked if I was & gt; up for 1 more test.LOL!!! I said NO,why? Lolol.So,he says?he waslooking?in this book and found this test to check? & gt; the sympathetic system.I guess it looks at dymelinating andmyelinating and also something in the nervous? & gt; system for autonomic dysfunction. If only they new what they weredoing!LOLOL, Im hoping im wrong!!!LOL! So,that & gt; was a lil shocker thing too but he says it will take a couple daysto interpret the results.My doc said he had cleared & gt; the afternoon for me because im special.HarHar. LOL.! He was nicethough to say I had the choice but he? & gt; thought it would be easier on me so I wouldnt have to keep goingback.He was right,cuz if I had known I wouldnt & gt; have gone at all.lol. & gt; & gt; ?? I just dont know. I dont really have confidence in this doc.Ifeel like a guinea pig with him,more so then with anyone & gt; else ever.I was and still am so confident in my cardio,I reallytrust and respect him.But all this is beyond him so & gt; thats why he sent me there.He did say I was too see a Dr.Mcbut I have been seeing a Dr.Hahn instead.I guess & gt; these 2 are the only ones there in the specialty and pretty muchfor all of my area.He always brings another doc and & gt; also a resident,so at least there is a few more opinions.Well, Ithink this is about it,until everything I forgot comes back.LOL!!!! & gt; I hope you all are well.I am going to try and catch up a bit beforebed.Miss ya guys!!!!! & gt; Luv n hugz, & gt; Cassy & gt; & gt; & gt; & gt; & gt; & gt; & gt; & gt; ???????????? ?? & gt; Be a better friend, newshound, and know-it-all with Yahoo!

They were baffled,it was 3 of them.Anyway, & gt; the doc I seen last time in the neuro-musc. clinic kept sayingthere is something in ?there,he said it a few times,and? & gt; then he told me he thinks its a type of annomoly,maybe something todo with the way my nerves are. & gt; The other doc said it took so long because they havnt quite seen & gt; (why does this keep happening to me?ARGH) something?like thisbefore.?It really hurt,I have little bruises were & gt; they pushed into my skin to shock me.???? & gt; ???? After that was the EMG,Finally! !!!!Lol!! ! It hurt so bad Iscreamed and cried like a baby. They did my arm once & gt; and then my legs about 2 maybe 3 times.It was definetly not thatbad when my old neuro?did it.He says the results for & gt; that one is ok. & gt; Then the docs went and talked (did this alot in the room andhallway) then my doc came back and asked if I was & gt; up for 1 more test.LOL!!! I said NO,why? Lolol.So,he says?he waslooking?in this book and found this test to check? & gt; the sympathetic system.I guess it looks at dymelinating andmyelinating and also something in the nervous? & gt; system for autonomic dysfunction. If only they new what they weredoing!LOLOL, Im hoping im wrong!!!LOL! So,that & gt; was a lil shocker thing too but he says it will take a couple daysto interpret the results.My doc said he had cleared & gt; the afternoon for me because im special.HarHar. LOL.! He was nicethough to say I had the choice but he? & gt; thought it would be easier on me so I wouldnt have to keep goingback.He was right,cuz if I had known I wouldnt & gt; have gone at all.lol. & gt; & gt; ?? I just dont know. I dont really have confidence in this doc.Ifeel like a guinea pig with him,more so then with anyone & gt; else ever.I was and still am so confident in my cardio,I reallytrust and respect him.But all this is beyond him so & gt; thats why he sent me there.He did say I was too see a Dr.Mcbut I have been seeing a Dr.Hahn instead.I guess & gt; these 2 are the only ones there in the specialty and pretty muchfor all of my area.He always brings another doc and & gt; also a resident,so at least there is a few more opinions.Well, Ithink this is about it,until everything I forgot comes back.LOL!!!! & gt; I hope you all are well.I am going to try and catch up a bit beforebed.Miss ya guys!!!!! & gt; Luv n hugz, & gt; Cassy & gt; & gt; & gt; & gt; & gt; & gt; & gt; & gt; ???????????? ?? & gt; Be a better friend, newshound, and know-it-all with Yahoo!

Guest guest Posted April 27, 2008 Report Share Posted April 27, 2008 ROFLMHO! LOL!! How did you know I was looking over my shoulder? Lol.lol. Re: My Doctor Update ROFLMHO!! Oh, Cassy, the mental image of you scurrying off as fast as your walker would let you, glancing over your shoulder a few times to ensure they were not following with a need or electrode or bp cuff... LOLOL HUGS, Challis 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.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.
