I have had a PET scan this week but I have not had reaults yet. I have not a lot of mobility and have had a few seizures. Also i am getting cramps and pins nd needle feelings all over. I seem to he tired all the time is this normal? I hate it, i feel like i cant do anything and it no life to live. Anyone else similar. Also i am getting cramps and pins nd needle feelings all over
