[QUOTE="Mr.Glock, post: 4261567, member: 32877"] I was tested 2 months ago. The EMG test was rough as hell, reminded me of the cattle prod fights my brothers had our whole life on the farm! The Neurologist Doc that administered the test asked me after the test if I walked into the building. I was taken back by that question. Test showed Right leg mid thigh and down, left leg was at knee and down and was at a level that I should not be walking, or at least walking with an assist. I walk pretty good, but can stumble some when I work hard all day. He was also very shocked I had zero pain. Only thing is they stay cold, have to have socks on 24 hrs a day. I walked 4 miles, weedeated and mowed today, on my feet all day working on this house and by the end they were tired feeling. There is another baffling fact that shocked the Neurologist, I still have full strength in both legs even when they feel tired. They feel like I did 5 sets of heavy leg presses most of the time though they are still strong and such. He explained it’s the nerves telling my brain that they are fatigued. Scariest part to me was they do not know how slow or how fast it will progress to the point of not being able to walk. Mine all started when I broke my back. My Neurosurgeon got the test results and when I went in for a follow up he too was baffled why I can still walk with relative ease and no pain. Said it did not make sense. [/QUOTE]
