I wrote about this yesterdy in my '1 year' post, but I am in a panic like none before. Scariest thing yet is happening to me right now.My left leg:Freaking out about - new things:-feels unstable-when I stand on it for a few seconds only, it get shaky-I feel like I need to pay attention or try harder so that I wont stumble-I have stumbled recently, more yesterday and today. THIS the ultimate freak out for me.-when I go up stairs, again, I feel like I have to try harder with my left leg-same when I tried walking on my heels and toes, I could but leg was shaky and again, I feel like I had to try more.What seems to be not related to MND (what I keep trying to tell myself)
ain - the outer part of my thigh is tight and painful. When I touch it, it feels worse a little above my knee, but on the outside. I do feel some sort of pulling pain up my thigh into my hip area. This is why I am thinking IT band? No other part of my thigh hurts or is hard. It is really just this area where the IT band runs along (what I am thinking).-Clean EMG in my left calf/shin area and left upper arm 2 months ago-I had this left leg pain/tightness before and a shot and physiotherapy helped, but it's back. When I had this before, my left felt heavy, but not this time it just feels uncoordinated, not really heavy, but I keep saying, "Ok, I had a problem with this leg before which went away". -I had pains up my calves last night, coming from the pains under my feet. So I think "Ok ok, pain, bring it on, I dont care how painful things get, pain usually means not MND, so I'll take all the pain you can bring!"Notes - the MRI of my lumbar spine showed no pinched nerves. Was clean, besides a little bulging. Overall body twitching has died down, but I still get twitches in this left leg and my right hand (where I am also having an issue still).I am going to see my orthopedic this Friday. Hoping he can give me a shot again maybe. Until then, I really need people to 'talk' to who understand this symptom and fear. I haven't been this scared before....especially when I think of my right hand issue and this new pain under my feet, I feel I could pass out from being overwhelemed. :crying: I already took extra anxiety med. (opipramol). I don't even want to get up out of my chair so I don't have to feel how messed up and weak my leg feels, or stumble again. :crying: :crying:
