Hi i am a 21 year old male, everything first started with me being ill, i went to the emergency room twice being ill and the only thing they found was strep throat and i was prescribed antibiotics for this, i had been sick for a moderately long time starting last september, it ranged from headaches to body wide aches, the back of my neck felt on fire at points and so hot, i put a cold rag on it to keep me cool, i was nauseous all the time not feeling like being able to eat, i had a long episode of dizziness and light headedness. At point's i had difficulty just walking around the house because i felt so dizzy, all the symptoms started going away, and then i started getting muscle fasciculations in my legs if i remember right, then they started spreading body wide. A couple times when i took a hot shower i had felt tingly in my fingers and hands, mostly index fingers. I get burning sensations on various parts of my skin, mostly on tops and bottoms of hands and fingers, some on feet, and in between shoulder blades. For a while i was having difficulty swallowing, i believe acid reflux played a part, because i have a sensitive stomach. But now i've lost so much weight and apparent muscle loss, my arms are very skinny, and when i flex with arms extended the inside of my arms dent in. the back of my hand's have sunken in also, i feel weak, i'm still trying to do thing's even though i feel weak, like i went to the bar and danced a little last night and my leg's got weak and trembly and my hand was trembly holding the bottle cap. My hand's have a tremor most of the day, i can still open bottles, etc... but after my hands feel somewhat strained and up my forearm, i don't really have any difficulty walking or getting around. My legs have gotten smaller as well and the tops of my feet are somewhat sunken in.
I don't really have the money to see a neurologist, i have been sick for a while and unemployed and have not been able to make a check, no insurance, so i'm trying to save money here and there, what is everyones opinion?
