My legs are full on flexing since. This is something that’s new to me. My whole ordeal is relatively new to me which is started a year ago but has slowly been progressing since and new stuff seems to pop up. I did get an emg a week and a half ago and it showed all the muscles in my legs are firing incorrectly and other stuff.

So I went to get the blood test done my neurologist wanted on Monday. I had to wait a while but I’m 25 and there was much older people coming in and waiting so I didn’t want to take any of the chairs they could use even though I knew it would cause me pain. It did cause extra pain and my legs got super shaky as usual. I stood up for a bit and sat on the ground.

One thing I didn’t expect is my legs reacting how they are. Since Monday they have been non stop full on flexing. I haven’t got this before. Ive got it in my chest, neck, traps, hips, and back before and it comes and goes but sometimes stays for months. I’ve had pain and this and that but I’ve never had them thigh to foot just full on flex. They’ve always been tight but this is just something else. When I walk I can just feel them being so incredibly stiff and exhausted. It’s even harder to walk more than usual right now since they are fully contracted (to the extent they can be cause some of the muscles just weren’t working during emg) so trying to swing them back and fourth and bend at the knee is difficult.

I hope this goes away. I’ve had stuff random like this pop up and simply never go away. It would really suck if this is one of the things that doesn’t.
