Hello, I’m struggling w very strange symptoms.
Early October I awoke w really heavy arms and pain and that moved to my legs. I thought I may be COVID but no positive test. It continued and then started to get jerks and twitches in left leg. Concerned I got blood tests, negative for RA, lupus etc. I had two mris that showed pretty much nothing some cervical disk herniation but nothing that would cause symptoms. Twitches continues to get worse and now have a weakness on my left side, face, legs, arms.
I had an EMG Oct. 22 and came back normal. Fast forward to now, I have lost a significant amount of weight for no reason. Muscles in left side smaller and hard to sit up straight without pain. I wake up w stiffness in muscles and constant twitching. I am getting another emg soon but the doctor wants me to wait 2 weeks.
Does any of this sound familiar?
