Yeah, story of my life. Think I have ankle clonus which didn't freak me out until I googled it and saw only a few nasty things can cause it. I have neuralgia was why Dr was doing tests on feet and ankles. I don't see him again for a month. Great. But I know something is really wrong because I feel so awful so I might as well find out what it is.

I know what you are saying there. This probably comes from signals from the brain, and scary things can happen to nerve cells that control movement. Also want to ask you if you are on a cholesterol drug, since they can cause this.
Thanks for this!

No. I'm not on a cholesterol drug. I have peripheral neuropathy and then also forgot the name but I get wet feelings on my legs and vibrating feeling s, like I'll think my phone is vibrating in my pants pocket but it's not there. When a nurse put in an iv, I found out I have a numb spot on my wrist and now my finger is going numb. I also have had horrible balance and coordination problems for years. I fall frequently. Sometimes I just think this can't be my life. I got written up at work for mistakes I made last week but whatever is wrong is cycling and it messes with my ability to think and process quickly. I'm really scared. How am I going to support myself and my dog. I feel so alone.

That really blows. You really didn't need this. I'm sorry.
