What Causes Sudden Onset Of Muscle Weakness On Left Side And Leg?
I have had a sudden onset of muscle weakness especially on the left side,my leg is the worse. Unable to ambulate without difficulty. Upper body weakness,feels like I have no strength or at the least it is very much decreased. Recently treated for upper respiratory infection. Can you get a virus in your muscles or could the other virus have settled in my muscles? Really am not thinking this is a stroke. No facial droop or slurred speech.
