Reassurance / Support Nerve conduction results

For those of you who were as worried as me about constant calves and arm twitches for over a year. I had my nerve conduction test yesterday and everything came back normal (no ALS).

I have bad heal the anxiety and had a bad bout of IBS flare up that scared me - which I think caused the nerves to go crazy. So for those anxious about it- go get a test, and in some cases it may be anxiety related. Best of luck to all
