    2 EMGs, Still Tingling—Do I Accept This? 39F

    I’ve been having some concerning heart and lung symptoms over the past few months. Just two months ago, I was running 6 miles a day. Now I get short of breath even with light exertion — and sometimes even while sitting still. During runs, my heart rate spikes quickly, sometimes hitting 190–200...

    Thanks for the reply. Would someone be able to give an opinion on the NCS numbers though? From what I understand a minority of PALS do have sensory issues, and I have motor issues too - the tight muscles and the big toe weakness.

    Update - I think something is wrong here. The neurologist insists that the NCS is normal, but these numbers don’t look normal to me (and aren’t, according to ChatGPT). This is for the motor NCS: R peroneal - EDB Ankle - latency 3.23 - amplitude 5.9 Pop fossa- latency 11.96 - amplitude 5.4 -...

    2 EMGs, Still Tingling—Do I Accept This? 39F

    I’ve had 2 EMGs 5 weeks apart from different neurologists. The first EMG showed some sensory NCS findings that suggested a sciatic nerve injury. The second—done by a neuromuscular specialist—was completely normal, though it didn’t test as many sensory nerves. He didn’t think anything was wrong...
