Hi Tyson,

Thanks for the reply! So for the muscle twitches, is it like your muscle makes your arm jump? or like the kind that's under the skin?

I did have an EMG. Two actually. The first said something in the muscle part about positive waves. After that they thought I might have MG or Mitochondrial Myopathy so they did a biopsy which came back (like most things have!) negative or non conclusive. After that, my neuro sent me to UC Davis Neurology where THEY did the 2nd EMG. That one was a lot more in depth than the original one and they spent a lot of painful time on my neck. I haven't gotten the report yet for that one, but he said something about there being decriments and that he wanted to do a...... fine needle emg? Oh no, a single fiber emg, to confirm what he is certain is MG.

I'm hoping to get that done before the year is over. I've had so many dang tests that I've met my personal deductable so everything is covered @ 100%. But December 31st puts me back on the $ chart. lol
