Mystic I have Fibromyalgi. Had it for a while. I had a recent EMG done on me becouse of the faticulations (spelling) The Nuro doc said i am pretty bad top bottom front and back abnormale EMG. So my question is can i use the EMG to help along the fibro claim i have in the doc said i have Myalga central pain syndrome he said my fibro is cronic bla bla bla so with that alone will that be enough and could i make a claim for CTS as secondary to Fibro any info would help

Whats cts? Im not familiar with needing or using an emg to diagnose existance of fibro. But its thats DRS IMO that you can use.

Get him to say its more likely than not attibuted to have started.manifested, or what you had thrn is what you have NOW. Same thing.

Ill have to ask my neuro about that emg.It IS a cns lnked syndrome. Anything else, did I miss something? Good Luck and I welcome further query. Mystic

Hey Girlfriend, CTS is carpal tunnel syndrome. I still have it after the surgery I had in July. I have permanent nerve damage.

8516​  Paralysis of:

 

​Complete; the “griffin claw” deformity, due to flexor contraction of

​ring and  little fingers, atrophy very marked in dorsal interspace

​and thenar and hypothenar eminences; loss of extension of ring

​and little fingers, cannot spread the fingers (or reverse), cannot

​adduct the thumb; flexion of wrist weakened ​60​50

​Incomplete:

​Severe ​40​30

​Moderate ​30​20

​Mild ​10​10

 

This might be close due to the nerve effecting the the ring and pinky finger.
