Hello again. I'm really sorry for doing this but I must do, so, if you feel like kicking me out from this forum, do it, I will understand.

I still have fasciculations, mostly in legs (almost 24/7 in legs).

I want to ask you this: When I tighten my legs (especially right leg), I got spasam.

Here is a picture: https://www.flickr.com/photos/137138359@N06/26261807901/in/dateposted-public/

The area that is marked with red line is the area that I have that spasam.

Also, sometimes, when I walk, I get that spasam.

I need to add this... This spasam is caused by me, I mean I tight my legs and then I get that. My friend was done the same thing and he didn't get. I always get it. And when muscles after spasam going to normal position, my fasciculations are getting faster for few seconds.

Should I see Neurologist again, because I didn't tell him about this, I forgot.

I'm scared, because this is looking like spasticity in my legs. Right one is worst. I mean, sometimes when I walk, it is just numb, like wood. My calves also burn when I walk fast, to do point when I need to slow down, my legs just become slower alittle.

- I don't know why, but in first post it didn't show a picture.
 
It works now. Thanks. Picture is in the first post.
 
Anyone!? Please...
 
Your neurologist would have detected increased tone which indicates spasticity whether you told him or not about a symptom
 
Thank you, Nikki!
 
Can you please tell me, if this sound like ALS: In addition to all of my symptoms, I'm tired, I feel like exhausted, sleepy! Like I need to take a nap.

I never, never was sleepy during the day and for the almost 4-5 weeks I'm sleepy/tired. I feel tired even I didn't do nothing that day.

I didn't say this. I have a psoriasis, very mild one... You can't even find psoriasis on me anymore.

And my doctor said to me... That I got psoriasis from the stress! And yes, I have been having alot of stress
in my life.

So, does all this can be stress related!? :(

No it sounds nothing every remotely like ALS.

Yes stress can do all this and much more.
 
"does all this can be stress related!?"

Indeed, yes. There is no doubt that all your symptoms, including psoraisis, can be from stress.
Sometimes (mostly?) we don't even realize how bad the stress is.
Stress can make the hands get terribly dry and chapped and itchy and scratchy and bitten.

Whatever your doctor says, is the way you ought to go.
