Answers:
Rhabdomyolysis diagnosis depends mainly on blood and urine tests.
The ischaemic forearm test is not used in diagnosing your condition so it's highly unlikely a neurologist would order one unless he had a different diagnosis in mind and only then if he suspects a false positive for that diagnosis.Health Question & Answer
