Hello
My mother passed away from ALS in April 2013. Ever since she passed I have always wondered if I will be next.
There is no know history in the family of ALS. I am 49 years old and for the last week or a little over my body is twitching all over. First on my left arm and now my right leg. I have never had twitches so persistent. I don't feel weak nor I see any difference on my body.
I am hypersensitive because I cared for my sweet mother and I saw how horrible this is. I am going crazy reading about it in the internet which i know is not a good idea. That is how I found the this forum. These twitches have made me so anxious and it's really affecting me. I am crying all the time walking around as if I am going to die soon. I know we all have to die but I hope not from ALS. I AM probably making myself worst. I am so scared. I just want to vent. I called my doctor and he did not worry about it and told me to go to the gym. I called my moms ALS doctor and made an appointment to see him.
I welcome any feedback.
Thank you.
