My story starts 4 years ago when I started getting a twitch on the left side of my face. Went to a neurologist thinking I had a brain tumor. Had an MRI no tumor no MS. Went on with my life for about 2 years on July 27th 2013 I started having wide spread twitching and googled. Well here came ALS. Went back to neurologist and had a EMG,NCS and MRI of spine. All was well said BFS and went back for a year every 6 months for a year for check ups. Now November 2 2015 I notice my right arm in intense pain by elbow radiating to my wrist and shoulder. Also back in May my left shoulder acted up said it was bursitis and got better. Well went on Dec 8th to an orthopedist and diagnosed my right arm tennis elbow and left shoulder tendinitis. Hurts to lift with my right arm. Simple things like grabbing my wallet, getting dish detergent out of cabinet. Went to bowl and could pick up the ball but pain was unbearable. So does this sound like the start of ALS weakness? Does ALS weekends hurt usually. Still have the BFS twitching. Go to neurologist on this Tuesday
