I continue to train 5 days/week yet progress is slow. I am now up to 34 push ups yet my tricep and pec are still not responding the way the should. My MRI and EMG show I have narrowing of the canal in my C7. I have been doing traction every night for 15 min, then I use the tens treatment, then I ice everything. I am type A and do this religiously. I have definitely improved but want these muscles to "fire" again. The muscle loss occured so fast I thought I had some major disorder. Please update me with any of your progress.

Do you have any current updates on your condition? I am going through exact same thing. It is mentally draining.....
Thank you for this comment.

I had very sudden inability to tense the bicep and corresponding muscle loss, seemingly overnight!! I too felt like some major disorder was happening

My GP is of course not concerned (are they ever) but I am seeing a neurologist in 10 days

I came here needing a little hope and I found it, which can be a godsend at times like this .
