It's been a month to a month and a half since I've been here, and I've been coping with my anxiety more and more. Therapy, medicine, etc. Today however I've noticed something new.
My starting "symptoms" were a non visible tremor in my left leg, as well as twitching when the muscle was resting. Recently, today to be specific, however. I've noticed my tongue quivers when held half way out of my mouth. Doesn't do it when full extended - nor when at rest, that I can tell. But when it's held half way out you can see a very noticeable quiver or twitch. I've yet to see a neurologist, I wanted to believe I didn't need to. Is this something to be concerned about? My leg still tremors and twitches, but less than normal. I understand the chances of me getting Bulbar onset at 20 years old are virtually non existent, but I can't shake this feeling and it's affecting a lot in my life. Any responses would be greatly appreciated.
