Oddly enough a cancellation happened with a neurologist I was looking to see for a consult yesterday. I have a scheduled EMG now, though a ways out.
A step amongst the stairs.

Ron,
I want to see if the readings are worse. If not, well it is something else perhaps. I know that even having my sugar under control I can end up having flare ups. The issue is that while my overall health is leaps and bounds better I have weakness, discomfort and pain at levels that exceed where I was last November when I really took the bull by the horns and became more proactive. I get your point- one neurologist flat out said "we know you have neuropathy, there is nothing to be gained from an EMG." I understand it is limited information from the test, but I am burning through time off at work right now when I am so rigid I can't imagine sitting all day. My office routine has my cubicle divided so I move from computer to writing desk through out the day. I have duties sprinkled throughout every hour to force movement. I am constantly working to make my day better with smart usage of time and I adjust accordingly to bad results. I think continuing on my diet/supplement/exercise/medication path is a positive work in progress. I feel a strong need to know "how much worse." It won't stop my approach, but it may help my focus. Jon
