Hello my name is Cezar. Im 25 year old. Im from Poland. Sorry for my english but i will try my best. For 6 months i have fasciculations on all over my body. Im rly scared that i have ALS. I see holes in my body and i think i dididnt see them before. Like in my foot. Please check photo . I was on EMG. 7 muscles were tested and all muscles were perfect but in thumb muscle and quadriceps there is reineravion - im so afraid that i have ASL and soon im gonna die. I dont feel that im weak or something like that i can write etc . But that reineravion and fasciculations ... Doctor said this probably not ASL but injury in the past. In foot where is that hole i have fasciculation too. Im asking u for help. People more experienced. Thank you very much for help. God bless you.

Relax. You do not have ALS. If EMG did not show denervation and if muscle strength is normal, then you are good.

Reinnervation can be from a past injury.

Dents and holes are common and not necessarily abnormal.

Fasciculations (twitches) are common, nonspecific, and meaningless.
 
Thank you for answer. In that dent i have fasciculations. How do you think ? should I do another EMG to that place? or just forget about ASL , leave it? Thank you very much :) Cezar.
 
I would forget about ALS.
But see if you could get a referral to a physical therapist. That might help.
