Hello all,
I hope you don’t mind me putting forward my symptoms.
It started last year with a stiff jaw and full ears.
it went away and then in March this year it came back. Very painful both sides.
Then one day I noticed eye twitches which progressed to legs and arms neck torso all over. It wasn’t severe but noticeable.
Then one day I woke with cramped arms and legs. All limbs.My knees are a purple colour and some mornings the knees and thighs were a little red and burning....that seems to have stopped.
The stiff muscles has been a constant problem every morning. It’s an ache that comes and goes all day. 3 months now.
one day I noticed the shin muscle was stiff and now I can’t lift my right foot on a heel walk. It’s not noticeable when walking and I may have a sports injury from that leg years ago. I feel fatigued.
Neck twitches happen occasionally and I find my throat quite dry at times.
Sleep is a problem and the muscles stiff and sore in the day really are quite sore.
my voice hasn’t changed and I don’t have a weak grip. Though I must say my arms are a little sore and fingers a little sore in the morning cramps.
Im having tests but to me it doesn’t look good. My wife thinks I have anxiety as I’ve had a stressful year.
