restrictive lung disease

Recommended Posts

Hey,

went for pulmonary function tests yesterday, flunked them. The pattern came out as restrictive lung disease, which is associated with many disorders, including a specific neuromuscular one I'm being evaluated for. Just exploring possible differentials, anyone have this and been told that it's somehow related to dysautonomia?

Specialized EMG tomorrow. Not looking forward. Thinking of what to treat myself to afterwards...

I suppose it could be related to ans issues, but one shouldn't make that assumption until all other reasons are ruled out.

Ariella, I am not sure if you are still posting on this board but was wondering which neuromuscular disease you were being evaluated for in regard to your restrictive lung disease? I am in the same boat and trying to gather info. Thank you in advance!
