Hello, my name is Royce. I'm 44 years old. My muscles as of late have been constantly fatigued feeling and sore with no physical exercise to justify it. I have been experiencing the muscle twitching all throughout my body for the last week, mainly legs, feet, right arm, and thumb. My main concern is the weakness I have in my right arm and more specifically my thumb. I can still grab things with my hand and use my thumb, but it gets very sore and fatigued easily. My fingers feel heavy and opening and closing my hand seems more difficult then the left hand. I get twitching in my thumb and right arm when exerting both. I have had periodic tingling in my right hand which I have read is not indicative of als. The thumb has been making it increasingly more difficult. For some reason my right hand and thumb have had considerably more problems than the left. Could this be the very early signs of als? Thank you so much for your time and help.
