It has been a long time since I have been on the forums haven't even looked at them in I think six months. Please don't think of me as somebody who is loosing their mind with anxiety or is trying to be disrespectful.
I have been struggling with fasiculations and cramping of the legs, arms and hands since last October. In fact there is nowhere on my body that doesn't twitch! I know that these mean almost definitely nothing and have pretty much made friends with them.
Went to the Nero and passed the exam went back 6weeks later passed again went back 6 months after that and passed again! Never had a EMG. Life was good. Till like 2 weeks ago.
One day after a long day at UPS my right leg was FEELING super tired like I had just worked out a bunch didn't think much of it but by the end of the week it was tuckerd out by noon and today before I even headed out on my route it felt spent. (I know feeling means nothing but this is a bit outside of norm.)
I don't even know what to think I just want this to be over I have experienced perceived weakness before and this is different. I can still use my leg no tripping over my toes or scuffing my heal just extremely fatigued.
Should I be overly concerned? this doesn't seem like the start of ALS right?
Please except my apologies if my question is rediculos or a waste of your time I do not want to be a pest and thank you all for all of the help you have given me.
