Its Mike I originally posted back in sept. I had the following symptoms: Percieved weakness right side, twitching right side, stiffness in right forearm and eye twitches. In August I had an MRI of the brain and spine, blood work and thyroid looked at all of which was fine. Everyone here was helpfull and I moved on. I had 1 more appt for an EMG and NCS in oct and it was fine also. I left exstatic and started to move forward. Well in Dec the twitches spread all over and started having bad cramps and spastic muscles in both arms and glutes. And about 4 weeks ago started having throat pains followed by whining noises in the middle of sleeping that wakes me up. I cant get in for 5 weeks to see a neuro and feel like daily getting worse. I still can play sports run jump etc but can see the declining. Thanks for your help.
 
ALS requires hyperreflexia (UMN) plus clinical weakness and atrophy (LMN). I don't see any of those in your post.

Relax, stay busy and the five weeks will go by quickly.
