i just got the EMG done. this wasn't a bad EMG like i had before on my shoulder. but just a reflexive kind. it showed that i had a tendency towards myasthenia gravis. so he put me on a medicine to further confirm the diagnosis. the medicine is mestinon(pyridostigmine) 60 mg tablets. take 1/2 3 x day. then 1/2 4x day. then titrate up to 1 3 xday, and up to 4xday if tolerable. if i do well on this medicine it confirms the diagnosis. he says the side effects are as follows diarhea, nausea. then he has to do a muscle biopsy to further confirm it.
