I’m suppose to call him in a few weeks and follow up in a few months to see if it got worse .... IDK what...

    Hi Karen, I thought so as well, but it’s like I stopped off and on since Feb. this year to continue lifting because if the issue, it’s definitely a non motivational issue.

    Hi Nikki, the general neuro did not mention abnormal reflexes and we did not find any other weaknesses, yes it is very much localized to the bicep but from what I read from “ Dr. Google” was that it starts in a limb and progresses from there. IDK I am pretty worried at this point, rather speak...

    Hello everyone, 38 yo here who was in great shape until he realized his right arm progressively became weaker, from lifting 30 lbs easily to not being able to lift 12lbs. Fasiculations normally appear after strenous activity, sometimes at rest too. Thankful to still have grip strength and able...
