Hello, i'm 33 years old, female, married and mother of one son. It all started in last spring with weakness in my ankles and feet and in my left arm. I'm a nourse and i noticed that standing and walking at work was becoming hard, first i thought it was only stress but things were getting worse avery day so i went to my doctor. He referred me to a neuro that found that i have very brisk reflex in all my four limbs and noticed some twitching in my left calf. He ordered me an MRI, some blood test and an EMG. They all came back normal so he said we have to wait and see because there's something wrong with me but tests are normal. In October I had another emg that came back normal too but my condition are worsening, walking is very difficult because of the weakness of feet and ankles, the twiching is now widespread all over my body and now i also feel stifness in my neck, shoulders and arms, sometimes my hands are so stiff that i can't open them. It seem to me that i'm living in a bad dream, i just want my health back and if i can't i want to know what is wrong with me. It all sounds me like i have als but my neuro keeps telling me we have to wait.....i'm tired of waiting. I feel so alone and scary.
