I have had throat irritation for over a year. I started with family doctor and after many blood tests that came back negative, he referred me to ENT. ENT ran blood tests and checked out throat, but all negative. Had ct scan of throat and came back with severe stenosis. Prescribed ibuprofen but nothing helped throat issue. ENT was after around 6 to 8 months after issue started. ENT then referred me to neurologist. At first just to check throat issue, but he had no recommendation. Then I started having fasisculations and I started to be concerned that this could be als. I went back to neurologist and he tested my reflexes and strength and both were fine. He said I could rule out als by taking an emg so I decided to do that because of my paranoia. He said I have an abnormality in one calf, but the rest of the test was ok. I am loosing sleep over als possibility and I don t feel I am getting good answer from neurologist. Both of my legs and feet have fasisculations, occasionally get in other areas, arms, buttocks, etc. I don t seem to have any weakness. Any advice
Hello, The articulations on the legs and feet can be related to an electrolyte disturbance or low levels of vitamin B12. This can also be related to a mild nerve root compression at the level of lower spine.  Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Take care Chat Doctor.
