very confused with these symptoms....
just some questions for you kind people who may or may not relate, but have at least some experience. here is my issue----
im 29 years old, generally good health (besides high cholesterol and controlled asthma, and severe anxiety). I'm 28 weeks pregnant with normal blood pressure, and so far a pretty good pregnancy.
Ive been getting wierd symptoms for 6-7 days now. It's tingling/vibrating sensation thru my hands, feet, legs and arms....and very occasionally thru the side of my head. i have no pain..... and no other issues....(no walking issues, no pain, no blurreed vision etc)... i went to my neurologist, who did the "point to ur nose/touch my fingers, etc examination" , checked my blood pressure, etc. she said i look perfect, has no idea whats causing the tingling sensations and said if anything gets worse to call her back, and did set up a follow up for 4 weeks (basically to make me feel better i guess, because she is not concerned.)
4-5 days ago-- i started getting random twitching of my muscles.. random-- my right eye, then my left leg, upper arm, etc. on and off all day for the past 4-5days
of course, the twitching started AFTER i saw my neuro.
again, there is no weakness, walking, breathing, or swallowing issues.
my neuro. did an mri of brain w/and without contrast 6 months ago witch was completely normal (when i was having panic attacks with physical anxiet symptoms so she just wanted to be sure all is clear with an mri) A cbc blood test was done 2 days ago, completely normal (accept for slight anemia probably pregnancy induced) .....also my thyroid was checked 6 months ago and perfectly fine.
If indeed i did have something serious...wouldnt something in blood work come back abnormal? such as high or low white cell counts or something?
my questions are --- from your experience do you see ALS? MAYBE MS OR BFS? as a possibilty ? or something worse? or is this just all stress induced? im very concerned and scared. noone has answers for me.
