Hello everyone-
I wanted to give an update as my symptoms have got worse. I still have pain in my neck muscles front and sides and the worst pain is under my jaw line. It feels like something is swollen inside but my GP said my nodes were normal. The ache under my jawline gets worse at the end of the day as does my neck pain. My tongue has indents along the edges which are certainly getting much worse. The indents do match up with my teeth but they are no doubt much worse (deeper and bigger) then they were 10 days ago. I also have some tightness in my chest and still have the muscle twitching, especially at night. I have a appt. with OSU on the 13th of Oct. My Gp put me on Cymbalta for Fibro and it is not doing much at all. This is getting really scary, I cant function mornally anymore. I have been sick since the end of June/beginning of July. I am not slurring words but the aching does get worse when I talk. What else could this be? The pain is the worst, is that something that is usual with the onset of certain ALS?
