Advice about my ankle clonus..Please...

I was told 1yr and 7mo ago that I had sustained unilateral ankle clonus. At that time I also had tremors, fasciculations all over, and lots of sensory symptoms like buzzing, tingling, random numb spots that would come and go, and tight feelings in my calves. This all started quite suddenly. I felt weak all over but had no true or clinical weakness, just felt real fatigued and very nervous.

Those are all the symptoms I had when I was told I needed to see a neurologist, to be ruled out for stroke and MS. I went to a neurologist 2 weeks later, and he did his clinical exam on me and the only thing that showed wrong was my reflexes he said were quite brisk and I did have ankle clonus in my left ankle (several beats to sustained depending if I had been walking alot or not) only one beat if any in my right ankle. Less then 2 weeks latter it was in my right ankle as well. He sent me off for an MRI of my brain and C-spine, both were crystal clear..Then I was sent for and EMG in my legs because I was complaining of my legs just not feeling right. They felt weak and not supper coordinated but I could still walk, just not real fast and I could not run or it felt like I couldnt..The EMG was crystal clear as well. Still passed all the clincal exam except for the brisk reflexes and clonus. He said I was brisk all over and after all my test came back normal he started telling me that my anxiety could be causing the brisk reflexes and clonus. Oh and B12 was high but was told it wasnt a problem and thyroid was normal and no diabetes.

I feel much better now then I did this time last year. I was told I do not have MS, ALS, or any neuro issue for that matter. At first he had on my chart Myalopathy with clonus, but I was latter told that he only put that so he could run the appropriate tests for the symptoms I was having. Now my chart just reads Fasciculations.

My question is. If its been almost 2 yrs since this all started, is it ok for me to stop stressing over ALS and MS? I worry more about MS, but the clonus and twitches keep ALS on my mind still some. Could this be a back issue causing the clonus? I have been told this could be BFS, or a virus I caught or could just be I had some kind of nervous breakdown...which I did suffer a pretty traumatic C-section event just a year before all this hit. But at the same time, when all these symptoms started, I did feel sick like I had a virus as well...so I'm at a loss and would just really like some professional input. At the moment I do not have insurance to go doctor hopping to try to solve the clonus mystery so I thought I would post on here because frankly, I'm real wore out trying to figure this out on my own.

Help me please someone.

Thank you so much to anyone who takes the time.

  Hi...I am not a medical professional or nething, but I see u need someone to at least give u some ideas as to what may be going on...and I wanted to be  sure when u say ur brain MRI's were crystal clear, that u know for a fact, or was that what the dr told u?The reason I am so suspicious is many times Drs will see things they consider an incidental finding that can be more than incidental....

If u did not get copies of all ur MRI's I would suggest u request copies from the facility where the studies were done...and ask for copies of the reports as well so u can get a 2nd  opinion.Many times we learn more from the reports than our drs.

  Good luck to u
