Scared af

Two months ago, I woke up and my arms felt very heavy. My left hand wasn’t working right, it’s still really weak, every time I reach into a bag of chips and try to release the chips, It does not release easily. The arm weakness and the weakness in my left hand eventually moved to my whole body, making it feel super weak and hard to do physical activity. Literally feels like they’re sandbags attached to my body. I’m having muscle fasciculations, and I have atrophy in one arm and one leg. Obviously, I think the worst. Tell myself I have ALS. Now, some of the weakness in my limbs went away, but it’s still there, and it moved to my bladder being full quicker than usual and my voice sounding kind of hoarse and dull and just a little bit deep. My white blood count n neutrophils is on higher side and I have night sweats as well as a swollen lymph node in groin. I also have the horizontal ridges in my nails, which usually indicate major illness. I go for my EMG in about two weeks and I see an LLMD in about a month. Does this sound like ALS to any of you guys? Or did any of you guys have these with Lyme? Also, what are some ways I can detox in the meantime. Thank you

Thoughts?

Frequent urination, everything feels heavy when I lift, losing muscle, voice is getting deeper? Anyone have this with Lyme/Mold/Bartonella?

Frequent urinating

A week ago I started urinating pretty frequently. It has gotten worse and I’m peeing every 10 minutes. Does this sound like lyme or mold? I’m literally so upset and feel like I can’t do anything at all. I’m constantly in the bathroom. It’s so depressing. I’m miserable It has gotten worse with a week. I just don’t understand. I see an LLMD late August.

Ugh

I feel so doomed. My body has changed every day for the past month. Started with my arms feeling funny and feeling heavy with muscle trophy and balance issues. Well, my balance got better, but the atrophy is still there and my arms are still heavy. Then it turned into my bladder within the past week and I feel like I have to empty it more than usual and I always feel like there’s pressure down there. Now today I woke up and my stomach feels weird. If this is als, could it rlly move this fast? I have NO MONEY FOR AN LLMD. Single woman making minimum wage. Any advice?

:(

36 year old female. Tired of my body changing daily. One month ago I woke up to a weak body that feels like there’s sandbags tied to it. Muscle fasciculations, muscle atrophy, frequent urination, body aches, balance issues. High wbc, high neutrophils. No diagnosis, waiting to see neurologist.
Saving money for LLMD. What can I do in the meantime? I feel doomed

Every symptom of ALS. Could this still be Lyme disease?

Seems like every day I’m having a new symptom. This all happened a month ago when I wake up with something new every day. Frequent urination is the most recent one that started today. Thoughts?

ALS cramps or Lyme cramps hmm

I have all ALS symptoms, but my limbs cramp very, very bad the next day after using them a lot. Went on a walk yesterday and now my bones ache terribly. Does this sound more like Lyme?

ALS or infection?¿

I am a 24-year-old female. Around a year ago I noticed that I was stumbling when I was walking. I have POTS so I thought it was from that to be honest. A few months back, I started having swollen lymph nodes in my groin area, night sweats, bad bone pain. I also had a high white blood count and high neutrophils. The doctor thought I had lymphoma, but I got checked for all of that and it all came back negative. Fast-forward to a month ago I woke up one morning and my arms were super heavy. I was having muscle fasciculations as well. My left hand wasn’t working right. I would reach into a bag of chips and my hand wouldn’t release the chips. It would get stuck. My left hand is now working a little better and it’s not doing that often. My whole body feels like there’s sand bags tied to it and it’s hard to go steps. Also, having very bad brain fog . But, my muscles ache and I’m having major atrophy. I don’t ever remember getting bit by a tick. I’m saving up money to get an igenex test. I’m not looking to be diagnosed on this page however, I I’m curious on your guys’s opinion. Anyone have anything like this and it ended up being an infection, Lyme? MY MUSCLES ARE WASTING FAST! On a year waitlist to see a neurologist

Scared

Tons of ALS symptoms. Waiting to be seen by a neurologist. My muscle atrophy is very intense and has been getting worse these past 2 weeks. Very very rapid. Could this possibly be Lyme? I’ve read so many stories and never seen anyone speak of rapid muscle loss like this. Ugh.

I have all signs of ALS but the muscle atrophy I’m experiencing is so fast. 3 weeks ago it was just left arm, now it’s starting in right. As well as my right leg? Only thing still normal is left leg. Ugh. Anyone else have this but it just ended up being Lyme??

3 weeks ago I woke up with weakness in both arms and I was stumbling while walking. Then it started to become difficult to use my left hand and now walking is becoming even worse. I have the fascinations id say the muscle atrophy is the worst. Within 3 weeks there’s indents on each of my wrists. Is this moving too fast to be ALS? anyone have any idea? I tested negative for Lyme
