Default Single Fiber ???

I am scheduled for the Single Fiber Muscle ???? Is this where they remove a bit of muscle? Please give advice as to proceedure or what I should be aware of before this test.

If the MG Neurologist is practically positive I DO NOT have MG - definitely have a neurological condition - but he was pretty adamant it was NOT MG as was being dx'd previously. (This dr is an expert in the research and field of MG) so, if he is that positive - why would he still want to do a single fiber test.

I do have hyperplasia of the thymus and with infiltration to heart and lungs so he is also doing a MRI after we just did CT scan of chest area.

Is all this really necessary??

Bear in mind, I FINALLY have a doctor who is on my side and going to look outside of the box for my diagnosis.

Any thoughts are greatly appreciated. Thanks.
