Hello,

Do you feeling only weakness or is there any numbness or loss of sensation? It may be neuropthy or muscular pain. Until examination is done it is difficult to say what it is. Get it MRI spine and nerve conduction studies. Use tablet Pregabalin 75 mg for five days. If symptoms not improved please consult with your neuro-physician he will examine and treat you accordingly.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
