hello i joined this forum because i have a friend with als and i wanted to learn more about it and hear other people's stories. but i come to you with a question..
i am just curious to know your thoughts i am not in a panic or anything. just concerned that's all.
i hope this doesn't sound stupid but does headaches and neck stiffness have anything to do with als symptoms..
i have been having constant headaches on the left side of my head.. mid to lower part near the back of my head and spine.
also i have noticed twitching in my left calf and in other parts of my body. have been feeling a little weakness in my left forearm hand,and leg. i can still walk fine and i can still grip things but to me it feels tired.. i don't know.. it's hard to explain. been having trouble sleeping. and at night my legs are real restless. i do feel some fatigue in my right arm but more in the left.. people look at me like i am crazy when i say it cause to them i look healthy and fine but to me i feel these things on the inside..i am not jumping to any conclusions saying i am getting als, but i have noticed some of the symptoms but i am aware that i could be other things as well. my hands feel weak at times but not weak to the point where i can't hold things if that makes any sense.. .. i just wanted to know what some of you think..
