Thank you for your replies.
I have read the stickies, but I will again just to be sure I didn't overlook something.
Could someone explain to me the difference between an muscular pain and a cramp?
I'm really not sure of what the difference is.
Er, well. Not cramping. Intense. . . aching? I don't know. I do know there is no contractions. So I doubt it's spasticity The pain feels deep, kind of like a cramp.
There is twitching there too, infrequently. I've never heard of *** presenting with electrical pain or intense cramping. Sorry I keep posting. I'm debating on going to the ER, but I'm pretty sure they wouldn't be of any help.
Annnd one more. Sometimes I get electrical pain in my hands.
I severely doubt this is anxiety.
I lied. This is not 6/10 pain. This palm and hand pain is practically putting me in tears.
I wanted to reiterate before getting replies, the pain is bad. Comes with movement. The more still/less pressure on the area, the less pain I experience (there's always a certain amount of pain, though). But oh man, it really gets bad sometimes (now). Typing is practically torture.
I would like to keep this brief, but I'm certain it will quickly develop into paragraphs.
I'm concerned I'm displaying early symptoms of ALS. Please do not dismiss me on these foundations alone, but do still consider them: I have diagnosed OCD/GAD/Hypochondriasis/suspected conversion disorder...
