Hi everyone, I have been having major burning, cramping and even atrophy issues - oddly, my EMG was normal, but they are taking a biopsy in December.

However, the results of my ANSAR autonomic testing are in and I have an imbalance. My neuro is not too up on these things so he is referring me. If anyone knows anything about autonomic issues and can interpret, please help

Impression:
-The resulting sympathetic to parasympathetic ratio was abnormal with a marked adrenergic dominance.
-Although breathing increased normally in response to deep breathing and Vasalva, this patient showed a paradoxical parasympathetic increase to the sympathetic stimulation.
-Ortostatsis and postural orthostatic tachychardia syndrome are indicated by this inappropropriate decreased sympathetic response to standing as well as reflex tachychardia. Treatment with centrally acting beta blockers such as Sectral or Coreg.
-Patchy skin response on QSART. Suggestive of small fiber axonal neuropathy.

Since this whole autonomic mess started, I have been jumping out of my skin with anxiety, literally. I feel on edge all the time, even with the addition of some pscyh meds. For those of you with autonomic imbalance, is this normal?????

Thanks
L
