Hi all,
I have been having many strange symptoms and was hoping to get some input.
For about a year I have been dealing with constant foot pain and muscle tightness in my upper arms muscles(shoulder and biceps) like mild cramps. Also all my muscles seem to hurt when pressed on. Seemed to struggle with speech but only I noticed this.Then i noticed muscle loss in my back, arms and hands around the same time.
In the last month I have been experiencing foot pain, calf cramping loss of strength in my left hand, trouble holding things for long or doing simple tasks like peeling potatoes , brushing teeth ect. And mild weakness in right hand. Also cramping in my upper arms is much worse. Neck and chest pains, Also noticing frequent muscle fascinations all over body. Also seem to be having more speech issues. Throat feels like it has a knot in it.
I went to see neuro scared of possible ALS he did tests said everything looked normal. Had MRI , also had emg and it was normal.
Does ALS effect so many body parts so quickly
Any info/thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
God Bless
