Hi I will try and keep this brief and I am begging for some reassurance as I'm panicking beyond belief. For maybe 2 years Iv suffered with chest pain which felt like my bones were cracking, now it's got to the stage where I can barely turn or move in certain directions as it hurts so much. The doctor checked for inflammation of cartilage but it was fine so she reckoned it's muscle damage but nothing to worry about (this was a few weeks ago).
She checked my arms and legs and asked if it sometimes feels like creepy crawlies under my skin I said yeah sometimes, but since she said that Iv been getting twitching everywhere, mainly on my calf muscles, but on my arms sometimes, my thumb is twitching like crazy. It also feels like my left leg at the bottom feels hot, like the feeling just before you get pins and needles.
I have had lots of blood tests, all normal. I have no weakness in any limbs but the twitching in my calves especially is constant, i don't even feel it most of the time ( I read online this is a bad sign). The doc says I have anxiety but I'm going to neurologist to make sure. Today a d yesterday my lower back is really sore I feel like its spreading or something. I have a young child im losing my mind
Please, tell me this isn't bad
