Hi,
Im 26 soon to be 27. If i remember correctly I had posted in late 2011 and early 2012 about twitching and swallowing problems. Those symptoms have continued until now... Well, the fasciculations have gotten worse! Much much worse. The fatigue is there. The occasional weird muscle cramps too. And now this... In the last 6 weeks my left leg muscle has developed a dent. It's ao much smaller than the other one. It's clear as day! The whole left muscle is much smaller... And i have knee pain and weakness on that side and not too long ago i developed a left foot pain that had me limping for 10 days. Xrays were normal!
I can dismiss the fasciculations and the cramps but the muscle atrophy? That's undeniable!
Im going to be referred to a neurologist soon... Please any thoughts? And the limping could NOT have caused the atrophy.
