I’m sorry to see what your husband is experiencing. He’s so young to have such a disabling condition. Was his EMG normal?

I’ll just add that I encountered something similar when I was in my 40’s. I was very active and ran, I suddenly got extremely sore, weak and stiff leg muscles. I posted a long post about it somewhere around here. It’s difficult to explain how sore, weak and stiff my legs were. I could barely function. Multiple tests were not helpful in bringing a diagnosis. I saw primary, neurologist, endocrinologist, orthopedist, and rheumatologist. The rheumatologist wrote my primary a letter saying that it appeared to be polymyalgia rheumatica, except I was too young. I’ve always wondered what it really was. It lasted about 6 months and gradually improved. My legs were not normal for at least a year. If I got it again, I’d work with a therapist to get the stiffness out.

Best of luck with everything. I hope he can find answers and sone treatment that helps.

Hello thank you for your response. I had stated EKG but meant EMG but yes he’s had two one by a regular neurologist and the other by the nueromuslcar specialist and both are normal.

His legs are very stiff in his hamstring area as his physical therapist had noticed.

I’m glad your legs are doing better. We are hoping his will improve with time if we don’t get answers after the muscle biopsy
