29 year old, smoker for 8 years.
About 3.5 years ago I noticed minor tightness in my throat that I payed no attention to at first. Over the course of time I became more aware of slightly labored breathing...

I’ve had body wide twitching for 6 months. Went to neurologist after three months and got a clean EMG on right arm and leg. Have been in a total of five times for clinical exams (due to my anxiety of ALS - requested appointments with him) - all of which have come back non remarkable. He told me...

With me having...

Hi,
Maybe I'm being hypersensitive to everything that's going on in my body - maybe I'm just getting "old" (I just turned 32) and don't know how my body is supposed to feel.
I was running pretty well the last few months, training for my half marathon. I sprained my ankle and took about 2...
25 y/o female of 2 young children here. I've been under a lot of stress this year.
Starting in January I started getting horrible tension headaches, body wide pain in almost every joint, bone and nerve. The doctor said it was TMJ.
Went to the oral surgeon he ruled out TMJ.

The last 10 days, I've having a lot of muscle tightness in my legs, mainly the left one, shooting nerve pain in the...
So I want to start by saying thank you so much for taking the time to help out with any input. This has been an extremely nerve wracking few months. I have been to the ER multiple times for various symptoms and other specialists.
I started out in May with intense tingling all over my body...
Hello. I am a 19-year-old male who has had twitching muscles all over my body for a little over 3 years now. The twitches range from little, barely noticeable ones to big thumping ones that you can see trough clothes. In the beginning I used to have twitches that would go on in one spot...
I have read the “Read Before Posting” section and must admit that I do not have clinical weakness. However, my symptoms are not typical of limb onset ALS, but rather respiratory onset (or perhaps thoracic?). Quick information about me, I am a 30-year-old male. I completely understand the...
