in 1994 i started to get intermitted diplopia with vertigo. this continued till 2003 in which the double vision stayed perminently. it has some what cleared up and i still do get intermitten bouts. throughout that time i used to also get bad hamstring cramps. in 2003 i started getting traveling cramps in shuolders and arms. them at one point it felt as though i could not open my right hand after use and that went away. in 2005 i began to fasiculate all over. i also had what felt like a stroke as one night an electrical feeling passed through my left side. down my arm and fingers and chest,leg toes sex organ. i had first emg nothing showed, second emg showed fasiculatins occational, then my whole left side is starting to atrophy. foot,calf,hand,forearm,lat and back. just had emg/nvc of ulnar side of hand,between thumb, forearm,shoulder,calf. emg/nvc normal, no fibs,no+waves,no fasc, no palyphasic,amplitude and duration normal. I have also had my foot lose sensation for 3 weeks, both sides of my stomach go numb, mouth and tongue go numb, fleeting pains and stabbing sensations. my hands are asleep every morning along ulnar side of hands. I am so confused my neuro just got me a muscle biopsy no results yet. he thinks some kind of mitochondrial pathology. had test for MG neg. ck levels 90,96,76,75,138 upon excersice. I know you cant diagnose me but what are your thoughts or ideas to this. I cant think it is anything but als yet ck and emg of atrophy muscle normal. mri normal, all blood tests normal,chest x ray and ct of lower spine normal. totally confused.

i forgot to mention i am 36yrs old also my swallowing has become harder and my tongue feels off when i talk. i have and still do get fasiculatins on tongue, every muscle. my neuro feels the diplopia is mixed in with this stuff and told my that my sympttoms are to long to be ALS. i beleave the fasiculations are a separate issue as they stared 11 yrs after. any ideas would be greatlly welcomed.

i also get ptosis in left eyelid and when diplopia starts my eyes water and the left lid drops. my constant diplopia is when looking down. intermitened ones create double images mostly above and below to the right and sometimes side to side very seldom. left hand weakness in pinky,index,thumb. recorded as left 4 to 4+ and right 5.
