I'm 17 and I am really scared of ALS and here are my symptoms:

Muscle spasm in all over the body even in my tongue it's non stop
My muscle and my body get tired easily
I'm slurring
My body is shaky

does this sound an ALS my muscle spasms has been going for 6 months now :oops:

I already went to a Pedia-Neurologist and showed my tongue and didn't saw any fasciculation but today i saw my tongue today at the mirror and the fasciculation is getting worse
 
ALS at 17 would be some sort of record. Trust your doctor. Spasms, fatigue and other feelings are not signs of ALS. Weakness is. Your doctor i'm guessing checked for that and said no ALS. This is an old person disease, enjoy being young and stop worrying.

Please don't diagnose yourself--especially with this disease.

My husband thought he had a sprained ankle. He wasn't weak or tired--he just kept falling down. Tired comes after a bunch of muscles are gone.

As Vincent said, trust your doc and don't worry about ALS.
