It is important to determine if your perceived weakness of muscles is caused by joint pain and/ or stiffness. If this is the case I recommend consulting a rheumatologist for evaluation & appropriate testing. ,But if you have true primary muscle weakness, especially with associated diffuse muscle twitching, I prefer that you consult a neurologist for a workup. Fine fibrillations are seen in ALS
