Is it really Myopathy?

[AngyFox]

Greetings!
I have read up about the pinned threads and how an EMG of a classic case of ALS would look like, but I just want to at least have some form of assurance that it is not ALS, just a bit of paranoia I guess, I just want to know if these results would be pointing towards ALS

Hi there-

We would not contradict what is a very clear (all caps even!) diagnostic result from your EMG. If you have questions about your electrodiagnostic testing, your best bet is to speak with your neurologist, as they have your full medical history, know your reported symptoms, have examined you, and now have the EMG and NCS results to provide further insight.

Please take care

I have no doubts and I'm REALLY hoping that it is not wrong, I just wanted to know if the results would at least be somewhat similar to ALS as I wait for to get my Biopsy done next week

An inflammatory myopathy is much better news than ALS -- generally more treatable. And the muscle biopsy will help confirm the diagnosis much better than we could.
