Hey !

So... Tomorrow at 5PM French time, I'll be to the neuro for my EMG. And honestly... I'm scared as heck... I have this fear of knowing you know ?

3 months of fasciculations and hands shaking for a bit more with know clinical weakness that are visible (at least no real change in movements, just fealing a bit tired in the limbs some days, I got my MRI a few days back which revealed "aspecific sustentorial punctiform FLAIR hypersignals" leading to a medular MRI end of the month.

And fuck am I scared.

I'm 28 with no ALS or other neuro desease known in my family (unless you count the late grandma that was mentally stuck in WWII).

I'll be honest, at this point, after 3 months of twitching almost non stop in the legs, I'm pretty sure that ALS isn't on the table but... It's still on the back of my mind you know, an annoying "what if", or "what if it's MS, huntington's, etc".

It was enough that I hesitated voting today (yeah that's a thing in France if you hadn't heard, strange time here lemme tell you). I thought "What's the point if I have that ?".

I think... Well I'm not the most optimistic of guys here and the past few years haven't been kind on me so I'm always on the lookout for something worse, two sudden deaths in the family (one this week), a job that doesn't lead anywhere and an isolation due to said job...

I guess I need to vent without being interrupted. And I'd like to know if someone had experience concerning an EMG in the same time frame ? Like what did the neuro said concerning the accuracy of said EMG ?

Regards
