I have gone to Doctors for about 2 years . I have muscles cramps and twitching all through out my body including my tongue which is really weird. I can barely walk any distant and cannot get up off the floor or even from a squat without help or crawling to a chair and pulling myself up .
I have a hard time swallowing and choke even in drinking water. I cough after and while I am eating and my voice sounds weak and hoarse most of the time now.
My arms and hands cramp and twitching and it is hard to hold a normal size pen and to button things and reposition anything I hold. I have to use the other hand just to turn my rings around my fingers. My muscles look so funny now and are weak.
I have become clumsy by dropping things and tripping and falling. I have a positive Babinsky test, My toes flair upward and out. My EMG popped like popcorn, but he only does one leg. That I don't understand why just one when the whole body has signs and syptoms. Trying to walk heel to toe I fall all over the place. I have no balance anymore. After the visit the dr says come back in 3 months unless you feel worse. Do all of them say that? :?:
