I wake up feeling drained of energy even if I sleep 12 hours. I have weakness in my hands, legs and arms. I don't know if it is classified as fatigue or weakness actually. But my arms kinda have that burning sensation like I'm working out. My legs sometimes have this feeling but I usually feel pain when standing up and sitting down in my thighs and also have pain around my knees after standing to long. I have muscle twitches everywhere. on my face (almost always nose) but most of the twitches are in my legs, where they occur most. I have them mostly everywhere. I also have back pain when leaning over I don't know if this would fit into the symptoms of MS. I haven't went into much detail with my hand weakness but it is way worse upon waking, and all the only way I can describe it is by saying my I can't clench my fists as hard as I used to and they feel stiff when I awake. I'm really scared this could be something serious and have an appointment schedule with my family doctor. I'm only 18😞😞

It could be MS; it could also be lots of other things like Chronic Fatigue Syndrome or Fibromyalgia. An MRI will show MS, and you don't need a lumbar puncture/spinal tap to diagnose it - that seems to be done much more routinely in the USA than here in the UK.
