Hoping you find some good answers and treatment soon!
I have not had the lumbar puncture yet. I do not know if I had blood test for stiff muscle but they told me that they did every blood work that they could think of. I do not think that I have increase muscle mass unless I exercise. At times my muscles are fine but some days they get tight with me walking or using whatever muscle and that's when it gets painful and I can not lift my legs well. My neck hurts and tingles a lot so I think I have pinched nerve in it.
