Be your own advocate: I understand that it takes time and effort, but i encourage you to be your own advocate. Keep checking w/specialists until you get an answer and a treatment. Some things have been ruled out, which is excellent, but there is more to go. Peace and good health.

Muscles?: This is an important case. You did not mention a symptom of numbness. It sounds like the problem could be with your muscles or the motor nerves. That would explain these symptoms. You will want to have blood testing for CPK and other muscle-related markers, and you may want to have an EMG to evaluate further, pending the outcome of your tests.
