im 47 and normally of good health.
first noticed both of my arms were significantly thinner and i was less powerful with them in november of last year.
then both legs - both calves and thighs are thinner and lost muscle mass. i'm very fatigued in a way i'm not normally.. for the last couple of months i've had twitching in both calves, in my thighs and arms quite constantly. i feel very jittery and when standing for a period feel unsteady on my feet.
if i cross my legs i notice the leg jerking ever so slightly. i can't not do anything at this point e.g. can do calf lifts etc. I'm completely stressed by this and it is occupying my mind a lot. i am full of respect for the group and appreciate this could be anxiety feeding on itself. but i'd appreciate perspectives.
