muscle biopsy

muscle biopsy

My doctor has suggested I have another muscle biopsy.  I have been diagnosed with a myopathy on EMG tests.  I have had a muscle bx in 1999, it was normal. The doctor told me that they didn't test for a mitochondrial myopathy or glycogen storage dx.  My question is, should I see yet another neurologist to coordinate the bx- to make sure that they test for appropriate diseases. My symptoms are much like myasthenia gravis--upper limb muscles esp fatigue very easily.  If you have any other suggestions, I would appreciate it--I have been struggling with this problem for 14 years. Thank you
