Hi all. I had my n.c.s and emg yesterday it was so upsetting. I've waited 7mths to have it done. My emg was clear nothing shown on it. She did both my legs one arm neck tonge. All clean. Not had report about n.c.s yet I think I will get results when I see neurologist in spetember. Am still worried though I still have weird heavy feeling in my shoulders and arms feel weak and wrists feel limp. I feel like am wearing a heavy coat of lead it's really strange. Can you still have mnd if your emg is clear many thanks

An ALS diagnosis is not made on the basis of EMG test results alone, but after clinical exams, diagnostic tests and a person's symptoms, so by having hyperreflexia does NOT mean you have ALS/MND.
Your post reads you were upset because your EMG showed no abnormalities??Diagnosed 03/2007. Sporadic Definite ALS/MND Spinal (hand) Onset.

No far from it. I was in a mess and was upset with the whole thing. I go to see neurologist on Monday. I hope he can give me answers to all my worrying symptoms. I've started to have twitching spasms in my diaphragm over the last couple of days which concerns me more to the fact that even though I had clean emg am worried it might be bulbar or respiratory onset. And still get this presure feeling in my shoulders arms Etc feels so heavy I get it on and off most days. Sometimes it lasts for hours. It really it worrying.
hope you are well and thanks for your reply x
