My GAD Ab result was 1,451 at UW Madison, with their normal range <=0.02; and a normal EMG. I do not have any pain whatsoever, no muscle spasms, no startle reflex, no muscle weakness. I REALLY stiffen up when out in the cold, which was never a problem for me before. I used to love skiing, skating, sledding, etc.

I DID have both knees and both hips replaced due to osteoarthritis, and that’s where my thoughts went with the onset of these symptoms — a possible reaction to all of the artificial components in my body. The medical specialists don’t think there is any correlation. Have any of you had joint replacements?
