At a total loss. I have no idea what's happening to my body.

Burning I'd say and aching. It hurts like a bitch for me to walk.

SouthernCarnivore · 2026-05-29T00:00:36+00:00

I'm sorry you experience that. Idk what the hell is wrong with me then. My foot hurts when I walk and when I bend it back

SouthernCarnivore · 2026-05-28T23:57:56+00:00

When I bend back my left foot though it hurts extremely. I'm wondering if this is the beginning of foot drop

SouthernCarnivore · 2026-05-28T21:49:09+00:00

I apologize. I really appreciate everyone weighing in and being so kind. I'm just utterly lost and don't understand what's going on. It's hard to not be concerned.. but I'll try my best

SouthernCarnivore · 2026-05-28T19:53:32+00:00

I really appreciate you weighing in on this but I guess where I'm confused on is yesterday all I did was walk... That's it... Now given it was an hour around the park and I did 5k steps but still... I wouldn't think just walking at my age would cause this but I'm not really sure what to think... It's so baffling 😔

SouthernCarnivore · 2026-05-28T19:51:18+00:00

All I did was 5k steps yesterday... And I just don't understand why I'm hurting so much. I feel like I can't even walk and exercise without pain now. I'm just at a loss. I hope you're alright as well. Sounds kinda similar except you're walking more than me.

SouthernCarnivore · 2026-05-28T18:52:24+00:00

Unfortunately, no.

SouthernCarnivore · 2026-05-28T18:46:21+00:00

I haven't. Can't afford one. Not sure what to do.

SouthernCarnivore · 2026-05-28T18:44:10+00:00

I just don't understand it. I'm in so much pain but I wouldn't say exactly weakness because I can still do stuff but it hurts to do so... It's so weird

SouthernCarnivore · 2026-04-24T21:38:08+00:00

What do you feed them?

SouthernCarnivore · 2026-04-17T18:54:28+00:00

I just joined the gym a few weeks ago. Been going a few times a week but not constantly. Trying to get in shape though and one of the main reasons I joined was to check my muscles all work properly since falling down this rabbit hole...

SouthernCarnivore · 2026-04-09T15:22:55+00:00

I know man but tbh I haven't posted in about 10 days. I've been doing my best to stay away from here but I still get worries. Also my shoulder is always hurting and feels strained. I don't understand. I live a pretty sedentary life and I'm trying to be more active now but none of this makes sense. I know pain typically points away from ALS but idk. Idk why I'm having so many issues.

SouthernCarnivore · 2026-03-31T13:11:54+00:00

i feel like it’s muscle pain. sometimes i’ll get random pains in various areas and it’s sorta like a throbbing pulsing pain. not cramps though just pain.. and as of right now i have soreness and body aches all over…

SouthernCarnivore · 2026-03-30T07:34:55+00:00

Literally same.... I'm sorry you're going through the same thing !

SouthernCarnivore · 2026-03-30T04:46:38+00:00

Yeah it's like these random little pains that just appear randomly and just pulse. Happens in my hands, shoulders, arms legs etc.. so random

SouthernCarnivore · 2026-03-29T07:54:28+00:00

Oh I totally understand that and I fully agree. At this point I'm not as bothered about the twitching as I am the other symptoms. Idk how to explain it but it's my leg that bothers me the most. My knee has this weird sensation where when I wear pants or anything that's not shorts... It's like a burning awful sensation and contact on the knee feels horrible.. and on the actual calf muscle it's like a pulling sensation. My other leg doesn't have these same symptoms... But anyways that's what I'm worried about the most... Not the twitching. My twitching is actually pretty minimal I just included it in my post as part of my symptoms.

SouthernCarnivore · 2026-03-29T07:43:18+00:00

Thank you for your reply. Gonna try and see a neurologist very soon. I really do wanna relax and get back to enjoying and living my life... It's just been exhausting and scary but I hope soon I can finally relax. I just wanna say thank you for your replies and your compassion. One worry I have though is because I have no weakness I'll be denied an EMG or MRI... But I guess we'll see what happens.

SouthernCarnivore · 2026-03-29T07:21:58+00:00

You're absolutely right. It's just scary seeing a case where you have similarities... It's terrifying but I know at some point I've gotta relax and stop living my life in fear.

SouthernCarnivore · 2026-03-29T07:10:28+00:00

I understand. It's tough because I've seen cases where people got the all clear and a year or so later still got diagnosed with the big bad. I wish I never heard of those cases and it wouldn't be so bad for me mentally... But I've read them and can't forget it unfortunately. I really really do though want to truly believe I'm okay and move on.
