Just popping in with update. Haven't been around much - laid up with my first cold in over ten years, lol! They're worse than I remember.




I had the emg nerve conduction yesterday. It was not as bad as I thought it was going to be. Some of the pokes were pretty ouchie but most of them I barely felt. The hand - by the thumb and finger - and lower back were the worst.

The back of my arm where you'd think that would be really sensitive, the doc measured and needled that 3x, cuz I couldn't feel it at all. I guess the reading was weak too or he wouldn't have triple checked to see he hit it right.

And the doc who did the test was a neuro who is one of the best in this part of the state. If anyone is going to find anything, he will.

He was running way late because his assistant was off sick so we only did the left side (which is worse). But my doc will send me back to do the right if I need it.


I go back to my doc find out what the results are the 20th.


I'd hug all of yas but I don't wanna get you all germy.
