Hello, I'm a 19 year old having some issues. I have been having trouble breathing and also had some trouble swallowing for about 2 years now, also had a panic attack at that time and feeling a bit out of my head. Now i'm going to the doctor every few weeks but it's always the same I'm completely healthy my longs are good and my blood didn't show anything unusual. About two weeks ago i woke up and suddenly felt a cramp in my right calf, doctor waved it off. Now i have been experiencing muscle twitching in my right leg but also in my arms, stomach and some other places. I also have the feeling that my right leg has lost some power in comparison with my left one but i can still do everything. My left nose wing is also twitching the whole time and i have the feeling ( I know it isn't about feeling but i can also see it a bit in the mirror ) that the left part of my face is a bit more heavy. Whenever i talk my words sometimes come out in a wrong way. I used to smoke pot a lot for a while in the 2year period and stopped smoking about 3 days before i had the leg cramp. Are these some symptoms of ALS and should i go to the doctor again ? And can it be that I have been trouble with my muscles for a longer time but because of my smoking i didn't really notice it ? I also have to tell that i'm somewhat stressed thinking the worst maybe some hyperventilation also because of my problem with breathing. Its weird that I have been trouble with my breathing for about 2 years but no muscle related problems and suddenly i quit smoking and these things come up. I have an appointment with a neurologist in about 2 weeks. 19 would seem very young right?
