Hello all- I am in the process of having some neurological problems evaluated. At the start of October I participated in a "ropes course" that included intense physical activity while stressed. During the course I experienced a severe neck ache that went from base of skull to between my shoulderblades. That lasted several days and was non responsive to ibupro. The neck pain cleared up but was replaced by a numb biceps in my left arm. That lasted several weeks so I went to my GP who suggested, prior to exam, possibly ALS, MS or a thyroid disorder. His exam revealed normal neuro and labwork was normal. This spiked my anxiety. Several weeks (2 weeks) later I experienced intense parasthsis in my left and right arms, back, neck and shoulder. I got into a neuro who did eval. Results were "normal" as well. Put on celebrex. Since then, parasthesis have cleared. There is still dull pain in neck, shoulders and back (pain in left calf now as well). neruo did diagnose probable sprained neck and possible sprained shoulder and arm. Ordered MRI to rule out neuroforaminal impingement or disk herniation. Get results in couple days. However, I also have noticed after burst of pain in shoulder that there are fasciculations that are short in duration in shoulder and in left calf if posture has not changed.
Questions. Given injury potential and normal neuro, does diagnosis make sense? Second, if there has been soft tissue injury in shoulder could that explain fasciculations? Finally, with calf pain and fasciculations, is that probably due to posture changes from injury?
