I am worried of als symptoms

[bjjstar]

Hi I am 18 year old male and I bodybuild pretty religiously. For about a week and a half now I have had major twitching All over my entire body. Say my leg twitches in my quad, next it will be I the back and so on. It's in very random places. Yesterday I had one area in the crotch twitching and today it's the lower back between the top of the glutes. All this just randomly started and it's body wide. I know exercise can cause this but I have never had these twitches and I've been bodybuilding for two years now. And they aren't bad twitches. Some are just one twitch others last for a few seconds. I would like to know if this sounds anything like the start of als?

Go read the sticky at the top of this forum titled "New Members: PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING!"

Especially the part about age.

Then ask.

Hmmm... from what you wrote,

("Yesterday I had one area in the crotch twitching and today it's the lower back between the top of the glutes.")

Let me research this and see if I can find in some case study where ALS manifested in the crotch or the gluteus maximus.

Ok, I'm back... nope. You're good to go.

Sweetie, that's like asking if you have Ebola because you are running a fever. Seriously, forget ALS. If you remain worried, see a doctor, but if you ask him about ALS he's going to have to supress a groan. Best of luck to you.

I opine that crotch twitching is fairly common in 18 year olds... just an observation.

YES...twitching and fasics in the nether regions can indeed occur with MND! I experience them almost daily......when those Victoria's Secrets ads play on TV
