I started experiencing cramps and twitching last year. I had a "borderline" EMG last year. I have tertiary esophagus motility, slowed GI transit time. My piMax is 74 and PeMax 62.. A breathing muscle endurance test was 17%. Pulmonologist looked at a chest CT I had done last year and pointed out atrophy in between my ribs.
I am hyperreflexive all limps with clonus.
I finally got insurance approval to be s.een by a movement disorder specialist who suspected Huntington's Disease. Had DNA test, no Huntington's.
Specialist says I have dystonia, ataxia and mild cognitive issues. I still have no idea of what is going on. My body doesn't look the same anymore there are strange dips and valleys on the back of my legs, and my back.
I still have no diagnosis and maintaining my employment is challenging to say the least.
Does anyone have any similar experience.
