Hello everyone, I apologize in advance for my English but I am not a native speaker.
I would also like to thank everyone for any advice or comment.
I really appreciate it.
I am a 34 year old woman, 24 weeks pregnant
I have had neurological problems since November 2019,
it all started only with a headache (summer 2019) then added joint pain, shaking of the head, tremor in the body and limbs. I started taking magnesium and calcium, then these problems subsided and from November the muscle twitches (visible) began to run all over the body. The more I was stressed the more they were seen and felt.
There was a period of rest and a period when the joints ached, the muscles twitched. I went around a neurologist, a rheumatologist, a district doctor, and they found nothing.
My problems since November 2019 are:
*fasciculation (shoulder blades, pecumies, legs, hands)-most but is "affected"left side of the body-a few twitching per day
*long-term fasciculation on the foot of the left foot (inner arch-feel,light and tilt of the foot can be seen
*sometimes I feel as if the goosebumps inside the muscle in the left leg (from the knee down)will come,pass-second 0, *I'm feeling a quick trembling in my left knee for a few days now (probably a deep fasciculation)
*when lying on the ground or a flat mat, I can't feel the incredible pain in the back of my spine, just standing over my side and a lot of pain when I move
*pain in sitting or leaning under the right breast/rib-pain is as if the pressure to the rib, when straightened leaves
*sometimes I feel a tickle in the muscles of my left leg (t.anterior, back of the calf)
*with severe toe tension, calf cramp-occasionally
*leg muscle pain turn only the lower-tibia-occasionally
*pulsation (feeling of rhythmic palpitations) in the back of the buttocks[/COLOR]
I feel like my NERVOUS SYSTEM is sick, and I can't get rid of that feeling.
I'm afraid of ALS disease-that these are the first manifestations... IS THAT POSSIBLE?
The examination I've had:
MR brain-free find
MRI of the spinal cord
EEG 2x (abnormalities)
blood donations for rheumatism factors, borella, minerals, liver and kidney tests, thyroid (reduced value)
ULT carotid
ULT veins and blood vessels DK
rheumatological examination
4/20EMG conductivity-free pathology
7/20EMG conductivity+needle (one muscle t.anterior left foot)-normal finding without pathology,for polyneoropathy does not testify. Examination at the county hospital. There was polyneuropathy in the neurologist's office.
9/20EMG conductivity+needle(impaled 3 muscles on the left leg-t anterior,gastrocne.,femoral muscle)-normal finding without pathology,not good for polyneuropathy and neurosophageal disease or ALS-this examination I had in Prague in a private EMG laboratory (here the doctor still tried reflexes for me-he did not find anything outside)In the neurologist's demand for the exclusion of ALS (I told my doctor about this disease, she always checked me out and found nothing, but for my peace of mind I was given a requisition. The doctor in Prague calmed me down and was actually quiet for about two weeks... Now it's over, as I describe it. Sometimes I dissolve Magnosolv but not in regular doses. Yesterday I was sitting with my left leg bent in my knee, and I got a cramp in my entire left leg. I think the sensations in the leg are better than, say, March 2020, but they're still there, and I don't know why, the fasciculations that are most in the left half of the body... still the thought of ALS haunts me...
Stability, motors, toe, heel all right, but I'm afraid it might come when I'm in trouble for "only" 10 months.
From the heart thank you for the reaction
