Hello,
I am a 24 year old man who has been dealing with twitching and tingling all of my life. I recently went to get an EMG done on my upper body, and my lower body will be done on the start of the new year.
My symptoms are tension headaches, tingling and twitching in my shoulder blades, side of head, calves twitching, and sometimes in my hands. My feet are also nonstop tingling as well. I have had blood tests done and they’ve come back normal.
I was just curious about the results of my EMG. I do work at a computer all day typing, so I knew I would have some type of carpel tunnel, however the second line about the acute and chronic denerivation/reinnervation got to me, as the neurologist did not mention this. All he mentioned was to wear a splint for my carpel tunnel for a month. I am trying not to look up what that means due to just fueling my health anxiety, but he also mentioned that I should schedule a brain MRI if I wanted to to rule out MS and “other things” as well.
Am I freaking out over nothing? I’m the type of person that overthinks and overworries (I get it from my mom) but I just want to see if it was something I should worry about.
Thank you for your help. I appreciate all of you very much.
