MMN and Muscle Atrophy
I haven't officially been diagnosed yet as I need to start IViG treatment as soon as my doctor can organise it however, I know I have MMN.
I have muscle atrophy of my right hand (no thumb muscle) which means I cannot pick things up properly, have difficulty writing and cannot do up buttons or zippers or turn a key in a lock with my dominant hand. I also have difficulty using a knife to cut up food.
My fingers cramp as does my right leg and I am constantly lethargic.
It's taken 10 years to get to this point where I may finally get an answer to my problems, I just wish it hadn't taken so long as if it had been detected earlier I may not have had muscle wastage and may have recovered much quicker.
