Muscle Twitches Throughout Body

I have symptoms identical to this. I have been diagnosed with functional neurological disorder. Mine started after a stupid foot procedure. I have muscle twitches all over my body, especially when I lay down. I have right sided weakness in my leg and foot. My legs sometimes feel like jello underneath me. I also have poor balance on my right side and an altered gait at times. These are the symptoms I had when I was diagnosed.

Since then, I have also developed hand and arm tremor, abnormal trunk movement, speech issues and more. It’s the gift that keeps on giving.

I would definitely request a neuro consult. Certainly not saying this is what you have. But the symptoms sound similar. I had a brain and spine MRI that were normal. The neurologist did several movement tests. Treatment is lots of different therapies.

Oh, wow. Does sound similar. I’m curious as to what your gait was like during an episode?

I’ve had one event where it felt like my legs weren’t in sync with the movement of the upper half or one another. Not sure how else to explain it. The pelvic area felt weak and the rest was almost like a puppet held together by skin.

Also, what is the abnormal trunk movement like!?
