Hi,
I have read the post so realize some things don’t add up but am slightly concerned. I’ve already had an MRI that was clear but have had fasciculations around mouth area and what feels like an internal tremor in upper body for about the last two weeks as well as feeling as if my lower lip is trembling. The neuro did an in office neuro exam and didn’t seem concerned about strength or anything but didn’t really check my mouth or anything.
I feel as if the last week I’ve had difficulty swallowing. I have never choked at any point, just feel as if some things have difficulty going down. I also feel like I’m creating a lot of saliva while talking and keep getting nervous that I’ll soon start slurring words. I do feel as if I have to constantly swallow hard and clear my throat to feel like nothing is there.
Should I be concerned about bulbar with the fasciculations, what feels like my lip trembling at times, and now the odd swallowing feeling? I may just be paranoid as I do often let my anxiety get to me but it’s just been weird things ongoing and I’m only 32 so very concerned.
Thanks in advance, and praying I’m not offending anyone by asking such.
