John: Been there, done that. I was like you. Have twitching , weakness, etc. Been through tons of testing. In fact, just had another EMG, NCV (my GP wanted me to have). Three different neuros. All of them have told me that I dont have ALS or any type of muscle disease. EMGs have always...

MR: Excellent post! Very well said! Good luck to you in life's journey!:D

MR: I wish I was like you and stopped the meds as soon as I started feeling sides. I didnt read the insert and didnt google anything. I kept telling the doc how I was feeling and he told me to keep taking the meds. I trusted him and did. After my hospital stay he then looked in his PDR and...

MR I have little doubt that those meds have something to do with your issues. Cipro and Flagyl are notorious for nerve side effects. I was on flagyl for 3 weeks and ended up in the ER with neuro toxicty. I was like you. Docs thought I had a parasite, then CDiff. I received so many meds it...

MR: I was like you and thought I had ALS. I had other issues (low iron, low testosterone, BFS, health anxiety, flagyl side effects, etc) among them was ulnar and CTS. Had a release surgery done about a year ago. Be careful because surgeons will want to operate. Try conservative treatment...

Stan: I was like you and had very similar symptoms. I came on here about a year ago and made a post like yours. I have the twitching, weakness etc. First, I think I have BFS, restless leg, health related anxiety. I do NOT have ALS! I was given flagyl 2 years ago and had nasty side effects...

I had some similar symptoms. Lost weight, became weak in hands and legs, started having twitching, etc. Came on here and was told no ALS. Diagnosed with bad gallbladder (removed), bilateral CTS and ulnar nerve issues and crossed leg palsy (crossing my legs tightly for long time after losing...

Have your vitamin levels been checked? (Bs, D etc) Certian meds and vitamins (excess or not enough) can lead to peripheral neuropathies. I was simply crossing my legs too much which led to peroneal neuropathy in both legs. Weakness, twitching etc.

Do you sit with your knees bent a lot or crossed? I did and was stretching and pinching my peroneal nerve, which effects your legs below your knees. You can have tinlging, weakness etc below the knee and you can fall as a result. One of the most common causes of it is crossing your legs, or...
