Hi everyone, thanks in advance to anybody who takes the time to respond to my concerns. For weeks now I have had an almost constant eye twitch. I also have random twitches throughout my body. I woke up with a sudden sensation of weakness in my body around 5 days ago, more prominent on the left side, and I was trembling all over. This trembling continued over the last few days but is now slightly better, however the twitches and weak sensation continue. I paid £120 for a video call with a neurologist who admitted it was difficult to examine over video call but he was 90% sure it was ‘unlikely’ to be anything serious. I don’t have any strength issues but what has worried me is reading here from diagnosed people that clinical weakness can arise sometime later, and some diagnosed people live with twitches as a sole symptom to begin with. I do suffer with anxiety but twitches and weakness is a very new and scary symptom to me.
I appreciate any response x
I should say also I have read the sticky, and posted reluctantly but got worried when I saw a couple of posts from diagnosed people who said they did not have any clinical weakness or loss of strength.
