I’m here posting I guess to vent and to hear opinions from others. I’ve been dealing with this issue for 14 months now
So 14 months ago I had a strong twitch for several hours in left forearm. A few weeks later it spread through ought my body and up till today I have them stil. In feet, legs, arms, hands, mouth am so on. Then I started noticing what atrophy in left hand so I had a emg if left side of my body 5 months later. The doctor said it was normal except minor ulnar neuropathy in left hand. I then started noticing similar atrophy in right hand and also some in between my pinky and ring finger. So I had a emg on right arm which the doc couldn’t find anything. I went to see a second neurologist and so far he’s only done a strength test and reflex test. He sees the twitching but says but wants to keep seeing me every 3 months to monitor me. Also my legs often feel stiff and I understand a lot of these symptoms could be anxiety related and I know I may be dumb for thinking this but I question the neurologist who did my two emgs. It seems every month I’ll have a episode on any given muscle of a real heavy fasciculations episode but always have muscles twitching off and on all over.
