Hello I’m a 37 year old female. A month and a half ago I experienced sudden weakness in my right calf which affected my ability to walk. It then spread to my right hamstring and glute and now my upper arm for the past 2 weeks. I experience stiffness and cramping and have to make an effort to actively engage different muscles to perform regular movements and they and up stiff and cramp. I get random twitches in those muscles. My emg is attached, showing fibrillation and signs of active denervation of muscles in the right leg. It was done on both legs. I also have positive babinski sign in both legs. This all started after exposure to the heavy metal gadolinium from an unrelated mri scan of my heart which was clear it caused me an array of symptoms which I never had and most recently this. Could this be ALS? Ps. The option for attaching the EMG disappeared
