Hi everyone!!
Okay so a year ago I got really sick and starting having some crazy symptoms. Ended up with a neuro referral and have been seeing him since.
I'm having progressive weakness in my hands and arms and the neuro was able to "see" the weakness during his exam. Left hand is worse than right but the weakness started in them both at the same time.
Legs are occasionally weak but not all the time.
I've also had some bouts of speech issues. This also comes and goes. Some words are lispy and hard to say. But then I'll have a month where my speech is totally normal. Weird!
I'm now having twitches and shaking pretty bad in my hands but I'm also twitching all over my body.
So the weakness in my hands is pretty bothersome but all my other symptoms come and go.
I've been tested for Lyme and lupus and I have a clean brain MRI last year at onset of symptoms. I had an emg a year ago before any symptoms started (for my peripheral nueropathy) and that was clean. But that was before any symptoms started.
Thoughts? The hand weakness is the worst. I find it hard to hold my phone one handed :/.
Anyone have weird come and go secondary symptoms at first?
