I was diagnosed with ALS in Feb. of this year but it was suspected in Dec. The doctors also think I probably would have been diagnosed sooner except many of the symptoms were masked by my back and spinal nerve damage (I have been disabled for 12+ years with back problems). I have had the fasciculations for well over a year but thought it was just my back. The fasciculations have really increased in my lower body in the past couple of months and now they are more active in my upper body, especially my chin and mouth and triceps. My whole upper body tremors when I am closer to sleep. My question is if any of this indicates it is moving fast or not? Yesterday my legs gave out twice. It just seems to be progressing fairly rapidly. I am a really practical guy who wants to make sure everything is done before it is to late and want to prepare my wife, family and friends if I can.
Thanks,
Doug
