After reading about the dx of Bechterew Disease (ankylosing spondylitis) posted by ChauBao, I started connecting some dots...I never considered it for me, but now, after reading through some AS sites/forus, perhaps I should have been looking there all along.Back in the summer, I had my 3rd...

I set 2 PMs, but they show up in the "OUTBOX" and not in "SENT" am I missing a step?Thanks!

I can almost instantly balance on my right leg. But my left leg is more "wobbly" and takes a few seconds to get there. I can achieve-- and hold-- balance on the left leg, but getting there is noticeably impacted. Anyone else have anything like that? I've been so focused on my left arm, where the...

Just back from neurologist. Was having a follow-up, but since still experiencing some pains, tremor, what-not in my left arm, he went ahead and did an EMG of the arm.It was normal. :)So, that's CT, 2 MRI's, EEG and now EMG...all GOOD!He said I had benign fasciculation and that I should keep...

Not looking for any answers, but I DO know my wife is tired of hearing about this stuff, so I'll vent here, if no one objects....The last few days have been a bit better for me, but today, my left eyelid has been twitching practically non-stop since I woke up, my arm left arm has that weird...

So today, I got my "official" follow-up with my neurologist regarding my MRI's and my EEG.All look very good, "No MS" (which I was very glad to hear!). He still says my presentation looks nothing like ALS (which I was also very glad to hear), particularly since my left arm (most symptomatic)...

I've been reading/posting here since just after Christmas. Lots of good advice, support and general "good-peopleness." Without this community, pretty sure they would be carting me away. :)Anyway. for me, the twitches and jumps don't even bother me. I think it's proly b/c I don't get them with...

I took adderall for almost 2 years, stopping only shortly BEFORE my (what I suspect are BFS) symptoms started kicking in. I have read of adderall causing twitching/painful muscles, as well as a few folks on other sites mentioning that after coming off of it.Stopping abruptly after 2 years was...

Again, I am just running on the assumption I am a BFS'r— and, if I am gonna imagine I have something, I'll take this over most of the other things I was choosing from ANY day! :)In addition to the perceived weakness of my left arm, I get lots of lovely twitched, left arm, left leg, now right leg...

Hello!Since 12/19, having what looks like all the usual issues-- started on a very long, all-day car drive with bicep jumping like crazy, then arm feeling "numbly" and weak (though fully functional, just not as strong as it "should be.") Started getting twitches in my left calf and also left...
