Hi all. I actually posted last November. At the time, I was having lots of twitching in both calves and feet, more at rest, and some deep cramping feelings. I had an EMG and it came back normal. Things settled down for awhile. Then, about 4-5 weeks ago the twitching in my feet and calves came back. It was accompanied by both of my achilles tendons, right above both heels, suddenly becoming incredibly tight. Like if I sit or lay down for more than an hour and then stand up, I have to limp because both tendons are so tight and painful I can barely walk. In addition to all of that, both of my forearms feel weak and so sore inside. Makes it hard to open my hands. And the pinky on my right hand has been twitching for 3 days straight. Mostly just when I rest my hand. I can see the muscle on the side of my hand twitching.
And a few days ago I noticed the twitching has moved up to the back of my thighs.
I don't know what to think. I know this is a lot. Sorry if this is a dumb post. I just feel like I'm losing control of my body. That's a scary feeling.
If you read all of this, thank you. Any thoughts are appreciated.
