Neuro thought MND, other one doesn't.. Some opinions please

[daviesimmin]

Hi people,

I posted a few weeks ago because I had seen a neuro who said that they were worried I could have MND, which got me really upset. I have seen another neuro yesterday who said he does not think MND but benign twitching disorder and he isn't sure what the previous neuro was on about it.

Can I just get some of your thoughts please, because a lot of you know ALS well and I would really appreciate your advice. I am not taking it to rule over a neuro I just want to hear.

I am 25 and twitch all over, constantly. calf muscles never stop and neither does my thighs. this is been going on for 3 months now. I haven't noticed weakness yet, and all my reflexes are fine, expect legs are a bit quick but neuro yesterday said that's cause I am anxious. I also lift weights and haven't seen any lowering in my strength and he said I would of by now.

I have no other illness or that except hayfever which is unrelated.

From what you people know of MND/ALS do you think I should just stop worrying?

I apologise for posting again. I have just been so scared since that second neuro said he thought MND.

We already told you that you don't present with ALS symptoms.
