EMG & NERVE CONDUCTION STUDIES
Finally, after a year wait to see a Neurologist in July past (2019) I have been referred for EMGs and Nerve Conduction Studies as she noted severe muscle wasting from just below my calves on both legs. No muscle left round my ankles, very minimal left. So today I had the tests, plus some special ones

Numb Face
Has anyone experienced numbness in one side of their face? Before you say stroke I went through this several weeks ago, went to the emergency room & they called for a stroke alert. Next thing I was having a cat scan, & that's just the beginning. I ended up spending 11days in the hospital, most of them

From Port to Picc...
Still no blood return with my dad’s port. He had chemo in his arm vein again today.I had to leave him and go to work; asked the nurses if someone could call me to tell me how he did, and if there was any change in the game plan...nobody called me, so I wonder how long they let the TPA or whatever clotbuster

GERD or something else?
I am having minor stomach aches and I have taken
activated
charcoal
. Nothing seems to be entirely working. Is it the stress? Can someone help with knowledge about the digestive system?
