It was a tensilon test, and it was in the hospital. It was a teaching academic hospital, and that was why my friend could easily get him to come and see me after class. I always say that I had the most rapid diagnosis possible (before I even realized I had any symptoms) and the most delayed diagnosis, 20 years later when objective evidence for my illness was finally found.
