Default Hi everyone!

I have pretty bad tremors and shakiness on my left side and sometimes on my right. I take psych meds and that could be the cause, however the tremors got really bad recently leading up to a hospitalization. No changes in medications either. Also sometimes its difficult to get words or sentences out (something that is totally off for me) The neurologist at the hospital did a CT Scan and a MRI with and without contrast and say I am completely clear in the brain / neck. They don't know what it is. Needless to say I was sent home. No MS or Stroke detected they said, although I am weaker on my left side and sometimes I drag my left foot.

So the ordered an EMG which is supposed to be done on November 25th. I guess its an outpatient procedure. I don't know what it could be. My friend said it sounded like ALS, and that really freaked me out.

Anyways:
I'm 32 years old I live in Erie, PA. I love aviation, culinary arts and big rig trucks. I've lived everywhere it seems, both coasts, north and south.
