Hello everyone,
I gave birth 9 months ago. 2 months after delivering, I started having right sided facial tingling/twitching and right shoulder spasms and tingling, this subsided after 2 months.
Then I started having right hip joint stiffness that progressed into body wide twitching. (Big muscle twitches and small popcorn twitches). I developed stiffness and tightness in all 4 limbs.
Then came the cramping....everywhere. Feet, hands, calfs, forearms, thighs. It’s pretty constant and is quite painful. The cramping by far is the most annoying symptom.
My legs feel fatigued, ache, throb and my ankles ache. My one calf has a “hot spotsmall area of twitching that feels like a little bee buzzing under the skin.
My neurologist ordered an emg, but it’s 2 months from now. So lots of waiting. Im certainly nervous and looking for any input from experienced people who know als first hand.
Thank you.
