Default about fasciculations

Hello,

When fasciculations are part of ALS before weakness do they start in one place only?
I mean, is the part where the fascics are/were first the first part that gets weak?
Is it logical that when my twitching started in my legs and later on moved up, that my legs would get weakness first?

Thanks you

Alex

Fasciculations don't mean anything. Anything can happen, don't try to use them to gauge what might happen.

Ya , fasics are just something to watch.

Remember that A535 (?) commercial where the guy came out and made his muscles jump ?
I wonder how much he got paid for that ? I think should get some of that action EH !
