Yes, I am also wasting. I've been injured since Apr 2022 but started wasting Jan 24--so the last 1.5 years. I am losing it all over entire body... back, forearms, legs, ankles, feet, neck, face... but I am gaining weight all in the gut. Muscles feel like they are turning to jello. Off/on burning neuropathy as well. Limbs are slowly shrinking down. Just a shell of my former self... I mean, I used to take VACATIONS to go HIKE 10+ miles a day! I have not been able to get any answers and like you I am keeping up some levels of physical activity but wasting slowly by the day. I also am having muscle twitching. My issues started after 1 dose of a jab (began with heart issues and neuropathy/weakness in left arm within two days of receiving shot) and it's been downhill ever since.

Same exact experience here after the 1st Pfizer booster.

Not sure why, but perhaps my saggy skin is LC related. It became that way just about when my other symptoms started to pop up. Any comments?
