    I'm sorry you are experiencing similar issues! I had some stress on this trip (my husband was going through some mental health issues that were manifesting) and honestly just really struggled with sleep while I was there. Do you have weakness too?

    When the soreness settled, I noticed significant muscle shrinkage in my right shoulder, bicep, tricep and hand (FDI muscle). My fingers / hand dexterity is pretty off now and my hand just hurts from constantly straining it under minor usage.

    Hi! Did your issues resolve? I fear mine are getting worse. In the last 3 weeks, I started noticing my right arm shaking more during my pilates class. Then it turned into not being able to lift as heavy weights as I could on my left arm. I strained my arm really bad while trying to lift a 20 lb...

    Right leg / left arm weakness, atrophy and twitching

    Closing the loop (hopefully) for those who come across this post. I met with my neuro today to review my EMG results. He said the EMG findings aren’t concerning to him and are “pretty much normal”. He believes my leg weakness and muscle loss is most likely post viral related and wants me to...

    Hello! Following up on my EMG findings from today: Concentric needle EMG of the selected muscles in the right lower extremity representing L1-S2 myotomes and different peripheral nerve distributions was unremarkable. The MUAPs noted in iliopsoas and gluteus medius showed mild polyphasic...

    Right leg / left arm weakness, atrophy and twitching

    While it is true that I have health anxiety (which I’m treating with medication), my weakness is pretty undeniable at this point. My right leg shakes more and more each day when I try to put my weight on it. But yes, I will circle back with my EMG results after Wednesday!

    Right leg / left arm weakness, atrophy and twitching

    I have my EMG on Wednesday and I’m so nervous, as I feel some symptoms have ramped up. I’ve had the worst insomnia for the past week. Haven’t been able to get much more than a few hours of sleep a night. If I do get to sleep, myclonus jerks are waking me up (predominantly on the fingers of my...

    Right leg / left arm weakness, atrophy and twitching

    Ha, thank you lgelb! I was also given Ativan to take before bed to "assist" my anxiety while I'm waiting for my SSRI to kick in :) Appreciate your response here.
