Great news honey, this does not even sound remotely like ALS. Not even one single thing you are experiencing.

It sounds as though you need to get yourself to your doctor and have this all checked out as complications from diabetes are not to be ignored if this is the cause.

Please stay away from sites like this and seek medical attention urgently.

You don't have any ALS symptoms. But, you do need to see a doctor immediately! Have you even called your doctor yet. You being diabetic and having white spots and bruising is very alarming. Don't waste your time on here. I would be going to a urgent care right now.
