Hey everyone I really need some help. I'm scared I have als but that's obviously why I am here right? So let me break down how I got to the point of me almost believing i have it and still do.
About January of this year 2016 I noticed some twitches. Mainly in my forearms and thighs. Well I was on prozac as well. This went on for a while and I had a lot of calf twitches especially when I'd lay down. So after months of this, I quit drinking energy drinks I was drinking a lot of. Got off of prozac. And still to this day I have twitches.
Some days are worse than others. Some days I have sore muscles. I have what I think is a dent or muscle deterioration due to als that I will post a picture of. I know about bfs and idk if I have thay. I mean eBen right now my calves are twitching pretty freguently almost like waves. I haven't been to the gym in a while. But I also have not lost weight.
I've seen 3 doctors and done blood work several times and every time they say I'm fine. But I don't understand how they think I'm fine when it's not going away. I'm 22 years old I shouldn't have these things going on. My doctor told me hr wanted me to go to a psychiatrist before I go to a neurologist which honestly irritates me a lot. I just want a emg done. So the fact they are not letting me makes me worry even more that I'm missing out on getting this under control.
Anyways I'm very scared I have als. I don't notice any weakNess really. I don't know how you can really define weakness but I (I'm in the military) can run and do pushup and situs just fine and pass my physical fitness tests, while these twithese have been going on for nearly a year. That is really the only thing I've noticed other than what I think is muscle deterioration.
I do have anxiety which makes this so much worse worrying about. I worry about it every day and it nearly consumes me. I appreciate any and all feedback and everyone's time. Thank you very much I may have left a little bit out but not that I can recall right now. Any questions will be answered asap. Thank you everyone.
