From what i have read i have the classic symptoms weakness and muscle waisting spreading from right arm to the left. Had emg tests and then referred to ALS clinic.
I am expecting the next symptom will be a foot or leg.What i am expierencincing now is weakness in both knees and ankles with sore feet.I feel something else is going on.
I am waiting for blood and urine tests and these results i think may show some explanation.
These results along with first ALS clinic appointment may be a month or so away.
Question:Is it abnormal for the weakness not to start in just one leg or foot.
Also i had a MRI of the neck but not the head.Should a MRI of the head be done before a final DX.
