Hello strong people. I am 24 years old and lives in Sweden. I am living in big fear. I got alot anxiety the last 6 months. I am not myself. I am so scared of having ALS. My girlfriend is in wheelchair and cant use hands or legs from a car accident before we met. She is also 7 months pregnant. I have always been the one who takes care of her. I help her shower, makes all dinner, clean, washing and working 100 procent so that we can live a good enjoying life together. I dont wanna leave her with our baby...... I understand that i have a disease and it points to ALS, in my world.
It all started with feeling numb left leg 7 months ago after an infection. Went to neuro and MRT did now show anything. After this i started to feel spasms under the skin in my left calve. I had this for a couple of months until i had another infection. When i had my second infection my both calves started to spasm and i was getting weaker. My whole body and brain felt like vibrations. I got a very bad immune system. After my 3rd infection i started to feel very weak in legs(most upper) and arms but mostly hands. It feels like i have been sleeping on them and that there is not enought blood in them to work correctly (that type of weakness). After this journey i also have twitches, spasms all over body, includig tounge. If i walk around the block my legs gets very tired. I feel weak but i am still having strenght in my muscles. I also have fevers often. If i grab something i can feel my nerves in hand in a wierd way. I also have had small burning, needle feeling in my lower legs somethimes. When i sit down on toilet, my both legs go numb fast. I get weaker and weaker spec in combination with colds. I also have hyporeflexes in both knees. When i sleep, my spasms goes away. When i move.. I start hsbe twitch and spasms constant. Please what do you think about my symtoms? 2 months left for neuro appointment. I cant sleep right now and i cry all the time. Cant leave my love right now. Hugs and thanks for taking time
