Unilateral (right-side) Muscle wasting of thigh and calf in male, in mid 60’s. Thigh atrophy noticed several weeks ago.Calf atrophy noticed days ago. Active, runs, cycles. On omeprazole for 9 years. Ceased magnesium supplements several weeks ago. Has chronic “sciatica” on same side. Has appt with neurologist in one week. Should he seek medical attention sooner? E.g., if compressed nerve, is this emergent? Also has muscle twitching in right biceps which has been attributed to medication effects (meds for hypertension, cholesterol, Wellbutrin)
Thanks
