Hello Everyone,
I think I have ALS and no one believes me not even the neurologist.
My twitching started two years ago and now I think I have muscle wasting in my hands and feet.. There is a big dent in the side of my foot where the arch is and one on the top of my hand. The doctor says I have strength in my hands and feet just because I could carry a chair and walk on my tiptoes and heels but the twitching is getting worse and now I have some sharp pain thingy all over my body that almost feels like a burn in different places. Please have a look at my photos of my foot and hand and tell me if you see the muscle wasting. I also want to know how long to I have to live if I have ALS. I am so scared please give advice. No EMG performed as not in the country I am living will be at home in the States within a month. Help
