Hi there, so much good has came out from the Ice Bucket Challenge as its raising so much awareness.
I have always been a worried person about things and I think when something is wrong then I think the worst and end up on google researching symptoms, which is the worst thing too do.
I am just worried because in the past week my hands seem too be painful in my index finger and thumb along with a sore wrist, I've also had some tingling in my thumbs and hands. I have also had some tingling in my arms and also my feet hurt along with my hands feeling swealt and burning up and a little weaker than normal but I'm not sure if this is down too me being worried and focusing on the worst symptoms.. I had a terrible cough recently also for months but this has since went away. Its driving me out of my mind that these problems with my hands and feet could be ALS/MND. There has been no twitching or anything like that. My mum has MS and this a neurological problem and i'm also worrying as ALS/MND is neurological also.
Any help would be great.
Thank you.
