Hi Jen, thank you for your response. I am so sorry to hear about your husband and I am also sorry if my concern about my condition, whatever it is, annoyed you a bit. The possibility of any mnd has just been very stressful. As I have said, I am praying for all those afflicted and the family...

Hi all, if I have never mentioned this before, my left leg goes through this weak period at least 2-3 times per week. It feels like something is tickling it from the insides from the hip to the toes. I wish I could actually speak with someone on the telephone and I understand that many people...

Hi, yes...the truth is that I have mentioned this to my gp and the neurologists before and they seem to not be listening to me. I know that they think all of these symptoms may just be anxiety, but come on, something like that is not normal. Additionally, what is spasticity? Aside from the...

Good Morning, Yes, the rehumatologist I saw is actually my GF's primary doctor. She was tested for evrything and she never said anything to me about ANA for anything. Believe me, I dont want to have any NMD but everyday, my limbs feel weak. I am still able to lift things etc, but they...

Good Morning All; Thank you for your help and advice. I want to answer a few of the questions you asked me. I did see the rheumatologist who said no to lupus...and no to any autoimmune findings. This doctor is actually my gf primary care doctor. We have both had toxicology bloods done...
