Could it be ALS?
My first post here and I'm not English then I'm from Sweden. Ask in advance apologies for any typos. Has been under investigation for four years. It started with tachycardia episodes and then the stiffness of the muscles. After that, I started to lose power in the left leg and then he made an MRI of the lumbar and found the disk bulges and the cysts on the L5-S1 level. Since it started with muscle spasms all over the body but especially in the left leg and lower leg. Have done many studies such as magnetic X-ray of the spine, brain and many blood samples. Has also made three EMG and the first two were without remark. The third man did there included two new muscle groups of the left lower leg, where they found inactive neurogenic changes in older dates. This neurologist related to problems in the lower back. A few months later began like symptoms in the right lower leg. Can definitely take me up and down the stairs but the strength is reduced. Especially when I go to bed I have much muscle spasms, tingling and then on. Have had two visits to the neurologist (by October) and these have been unremarkable. But the other day, I looked at my ankles, and have no idea how they looked before. But do you see any atrophy?
