Hello all!
I have been having some strange symptoms for the last month. It all came about suddenly and I’m concerned.
All started May 29th, ceased for 10 days then symptoms arose again.
Symptoms:
- involuntary thumb and middle finger twitch/movement (this lasted for a week and hasn’t returned)
- fasciculations all over body (legs, arms, buttocks, face, head etc)
- sore legs, left leg shakes uncontrollably if raising or putting weight on it
- palatal myoclonus (throat click)
- constant spitting up of mucus and swallowing
- excessive saliva that drools out of the left side of my mouth
- difficulty saying certain words (maybe some slurring?)
- stiff hands in morning gets better as day goes on
- left side cheek numbness that comes and goes
- left hand is very shaky and fingers move involuntarily if I hold it out straight
The majority of my issues seem to be on my left side. I’m pretty worried about my left leg shaking uncontrollably with minimal physical exertion.
