Hello! First, I want to thank anyone on this forum who help us scared people. I wish everyone on this forum well :sad:
I'm a 18 yo female. Since Christmas 2016 I experienced shaking in my hands. On the New Year's Eve (morning) I felt I couldn't deal with it anymore so my mom brought me to the hospital (emergency section). The doctor gave me a perfusion with B1 vitamin and other stuff I don't remember. I got home and had terrible palpitations for several hours, until my heartbeat eventually slowed down. I remember after that, at some point, the light started to cause me inconvenience and suddenly I felt like my head was split in two, from the top of my head to the muscles in my neck, under the tongue.
I experienced hand shaking afterwards, I went to a neuro who said everything looked fine and prescribed me anti-stress medicine. But at the beginning of February 2017 I started to feel a ticklish sensation in my foot, which spread to my entire legs until the end of the day (running ants feeling, something similiar to restless leg syndrome when I tried to sleep).
Now I get twitches and muscle spasms in my entire body: legs, back, belly etc...
I even had twitches in my shoulders, my butt muscles, my legs, the back of my head, my back, my face. It gets worse when I'm laying in my bed, usually when I am standing and walking and doing stuff things seem okay (Or maybe I don't notice them?)
I get trouble speaking ( I stutter sometimes and I feel some kind of weakness when I speak, like I caught a cold).
Also, I noticed my hands getting skinnier. What's more, my feet look even skinnier (I can see and feel my bones through, they are prominent like never before ).
I went to another neuro just yesterday. He said everything looked fine. He recommended I do an EMG.
I wanted to ask if any of you also experienced headaches, pressure in ears (more specifically eardrum twitching along other symptoms). Also, if you have any advice for me, I would greatly appreciate that...
thank you for reading!
