    This one’s for the worriers

    Hi all, I’ve been lurking here on and off for a little over a year and have even caved and posted a few threads. I just had my third clean EMG in 12 months.

    EMG question

    I have had the feeling of weakness since 16’ this was primarily on my left side from face down to foot. I had the run of tests including two clean EMG reports. I was thoroughly satisfied that I was in the clear and had some sort of virus or sleep issue that caused the twitching and perceived...
