Today I had my first neuro appt to discuss the twitches I've had all over my body for the past couple of months. I discussed my background of my grandfather having bulbar ALS and he being the only person in a large family to have been diagnosed with it. The neurologist did his exam and said that all reflexes and tests were good, no twitches were noted except a small twitch at the tip of my tongue. He then proceeded to tell me that he thinks I may be in beginning stage ALS. No slurring, no swallowing problems, no muscle weakness, nothing else except the little twitch at the tip of my tongue that he had to really look for. Naturally my anxiety level which has been at an all time high in the past two months just reached a level higher than that. What am I to do with this?
