I started out feeling shortness of breath. It was worse laying down. A month later I would get pain in my pinky knuckle and left hand. Noticed the grip was weakening. Shortly after that, I had soreness in my legs from lower thigh down to shin. I would occasionally get that crawling feeling in my shin. Felt like a bug was inside me. Both legs had the soreness. Then it moved to my arms. They get sore as well. I get weird sensations of my back burning for no reason. Lately, I have dealt with pain 3-4 a day of burning on my skin. Feels like my extremities were set on fire. I also have real signs of weakness in my hands and legs according to my doctor. I have a family member that went through ALS so this is concerning me. Last thing I was told was go see a neurologist. I had some c5 and c6 mild degenerate disc issues show up.
