Interesting, I had the same with my knees and elbows, absolutely no movement whilst I was in hospital with suspected MS. I do have MS and have posted all my symptoms for comment tonight.

Susie,

I had the same experience.  While my left knee had a brisk reflex, neither of my elbows had any reflex that I could notice.  The neuro didn't comment on it.  I have been curious about it also.  Hopefully, one of the drs. will answer for us.

God Bless,
