Hello and thank you for taking the time to read and hopefully answer this post. Mid July I was walking and my foot felt weird. When I got back to my car I realized my second toe wouldn't bend. It was locked straight. I couldn't even move it with my hands. I also noticed twitching in the arch of my foot. I made an appointment with my G.P. He suggested I have an MRI the results were negative of MS . My twitching continued in my foot and spread to arms legs and stomach. All but my feet would happen at random times. The foot continued almost none stop. After a month I had strong twitching around the elbow for one day. After that I noticed small twitching on pinky side of hand. Also when I make a fist the hand between pinky and wrist sucks in until I release my hand. I was referred to a Neurologist The first off August. He gave me a clinical exam and said he didn't see a need for EMG. Since then I feel as if I have declined. My twitching in my foot has gotten so strong it makes my Big toe move left to right. Also I have noticed when I attempt to walk down stairs my legs turn to jello. I can walk up with no problems, but down makes me look like Frankenstein. After that I feel like I've done some big leg workout. Also after sex my legs are extremely weak, and sore for a few days. I have a Neuro appointment with a Specialist at the end of December. The wait it tuff to say the least. Also I notice I shake a lot with simple things like resting on my elbow or arm. I have some discomfort in my ankle and Achilles on the foot that twitches. Any ideas or thoughts would be appreciated. Thank you
