Muscle stiffness:Can drugs/supplements cause this?

Posted by regisx on June 12, 2016, at 20:06:54

Hello, I'm worried cause lately I have issues with my forearms. There are days where they feel very strange. What I experience are things like:

weakness,
fatigue in the forearms shakiness,
not able to write properly!
tingling
feeling like the arm slept in and just wakes up
when I flex my arm and then extend the arm my thumb shakes! (i have this is on both arms!!!!)

I have been to a neurologist. He tested the nerves from the head to the arms and they are okay.

He also did a physical exam and said that I have a rigor. He said this isn't parkinson but he didn't say if this rigor is a bad sign or what to do if it doesn't go away anymore.

I really don't feel like this will go away. I also cannot tell how long I have been having this. I mean usually I don't look at my hand and check out wether it shakes when I extend my arm....

I take Lamictal (250mg) and amphetamine (for adhd) usually 20-30mg per day.

I also use supplements and now I'm uncertain and also worry if they could have anything to do with this.

Supplements which I take frequently but not every single day are:

1) choline
2) glycine
3) taurine
4) acetly-l-carnitine
5) glutamine

Should I stop taking amphetamine or the supplements?
It sucks that I don't know what causes this.

But this stuff is really scary. I mean this isn't like a broken arm where doctors easily know how to fix it.
