Hello Everyone,
My Husband has been experiencing some problems for the past few months, he keeps complaining of muscle stiffness, weakness and joint pain, he also keep waking up at night and twitches alot all over his body especially his shoulders and legs, He also gets pain in his knees especially behind right knee .
We took him to see a Neuro who ordered a MRI first and then EMG/ NCS but they didn't find anything wrong at the time, during the test i saw them check his whole body with NCS test and then for needle test they checked right side of his body in various places such as arm, leg, thigh hand.
Lately he has been complaining of more twitching and weakness, his tongue has also developed some fasciculations that were not noticeable last month and he says it feels numb or tingling and sometimes he feels he can't swallow well, but he has an existing problem with Acid reflux and i have tried to convince him that it could be causing issues with swallowing and discomfort in the throat. He is extremely worried all the time and it is affecting our marriage.
Please help me figure out whats wrong with him.....
Thank you
