Very concerned and would love any feedback/thoughts regardless of what they are.
About a month ago I felt a lack of sensation in my left arm. Not numbness or tingling but just that it felt different. Almost like I had just been to a work out and it was exhausted from my elbow to my hand. That feeling has been pretty constant (though absent some days) and specifically in my bicep and pinky. About two weeks after it started it went to my left leg specifically in the pinky toe and in the quad and bicep.
I've seen two neurologists both of which have said I have no strength issues (I feel the same amount strength wise in each side) and no reflex issues and the MRI came back normal. I feel a little bit odd as of yesterday in my left lip.
It doesnt feel like a lack of strength. If I went to the gym or did any exercise of that nature I feel fine. But in spare time hanging around when muscles arent engaged it is almost a sinking/heavy feeling. On top of it I have always been VERY tight in my muscles which is making my anxiety worse. Any thoughts, ideas, etc. would be greatly appreciated.
