Hi, I'm a 25 year old female with awful anxiety over recent ALS-type symptoms. It all came to a head about a month ago when I woke to feed my baby in the middle of the night and found myself unable to move my right arm or leg, this passed after a minute or so but since then I've had a heavy feeling in my right limbs. I teach yoga and have noticed my right side will fatigue much easier. The most concerning symptom would have to be what I suspect is muscle atrophy near my right elbow, when I contract my muscle the muscle in my forearm will almost slide back to relaxed, it's very strange. I have fasciculations that have I intensified and I really hope they are from anxiety. I have an aunt who passed from ALS years agoand I am extremely worried this is the only explanation for these symptoms.
