Hi all,
I am nearly 30 years old, having fasciculations for a few years, checked by a neurologist in Berlin and deemed benign.
Fast forward, I started noticing pronounced fatiguability of chewing muscles and possibly tongue...well I cannot tell for sure. It is not a weakness per se, it gets fatigued and then it even hurts (chewing). Doctor informed me that it might be MND but another told me that this not typical for a MND - plain weakness is. He mentioned mystenia gravis but said i dont other symptoms.
Also I would like to ask your opinion. A did a search on this forum and found a few posts mentioning that there was no tiredness or feeling like that, just weakness. That doctor (the first one) scared the hell out of me..and did not offer anything.
Thank you
Ema
