So you would <UNSURE>say it's</UNSURE> definitely weakness rather than because of the pain, you can't hold it. That's two different things. So you know sometimes you can't hold it because it's hurting you <UNIN/>."

    },

      "speaker": "PATIENT",
      "text": "Tired but I think that's probably because I work too much. Or, you know because like I'll go for a workout and then I'll really just exhaust myself and then I just kind of feel this fatigue."

      "speaker": "DOCTOR",
      "text": "OK, <INAUDIBLE_SPEECH/> few things that's, made me think other than, just like a boxing injury, is for instance, um, you know, when you said you can't, your vision went, your <UNSURE>peripheral vision</UNSURE> was not there for about <UNSURE>twenty</UNSURE>. So, and that with the weakness of the arms, make me think, is there something else going on rather than just <UNSURE>an</UNSURE> injury?"
