  • Hi! I'm from Finland too and currently suffering from all kinds of symptoms. Seeing a throat doctor and possible swallow study next week. How are you now? Have you gotten any diagnosis? Best, Nina

    Moi! I have no diagnosis. I hope it stays this way. My twitching is getting lesser everyday, and I am still 100% fully functional. Still, I know that _something_ isnt right. I need to start to believe that it is not ALS because it 2 years exactly now from the start of the symptoms. What are your symptoms?

    And I should see ENT (knk) doctor too. I am having a constant mucus in my throat, and it is really hard if not impossible to get out with coughing and huffing.
    Hey, we have very similar symptoms. How are you doing?

    But my lumbar puncture didnt point towards ms or anything else either. Idk. Really hard situation. I dont have the energy to go to work really, but I just do go. I try to life my life to fullest. Gym, fixing my old snowmobile, play with my kids, play PS5, hang out with friends etc.

    Thanks for replying!! I’m very sorry to hear that. I know how you feel. Been told not MnD by 2 different neuro’s… but I am getting worse for sure. I have a bulbar EMG this Wednesday so hopefully I get some answers soon. Did you get a bulbar EMG?

    No I didnt get bulbar-emg. I might could get it on the very end of the year. Finnish healthcare is just busy right now that unless you are dying, you need to wait almost a year to get an appt. paid by taxmoney. And Ive already spent around 4k€'s visiting private doctors.
    Do you have jaw clonus/ positive jaw jerk?

    Any new findings? Have you had anymore tests or diagnoses?

    Hi! Things are same as they were. Only thing that has came into play is that my nose is running 24/7, for the last 6 weeks.
    But on the other hand, couple weeks ago I did 7 muscle-ups in a row. So even my triceps, biceps, and the "wing" muscles of back have been twitching like crazy for a year, they havent lost their capacity for maximum power output.

    Thanks for the update. Your symptoms are all so bizarre, hopefully that means it’s something else. When your next EMG?
    I have almost exactly the same symptons as you, but i'm yet to do a full medical investigation.

    Hi! Sorry about that.. it sucks. Tell me please when you have visited somebody, what is the result.
    Hello, how have you been ? Better I hope

    But, I am trying to stay sane, I guess. Clean emg and 4 different doctors have said to me that "you-dont-have-als". I need to stick in that during the negative thinking.

    Hi. Sorry to hear. For me it is getting steadiky worse. The speech is the most scariest part. It is fluctuating during the day, and yesterday evening was the worst of all time. K's, s's, t's and j's are hard to say like we spell them in finland. In english spelling those are easier, they are not so hard.
    Hello, I have very similar symptoms with you. Please keep updating after you have some results etc.

    I went a certified ALS Clinic few weeks ago saw Neuromuscular Neurologist. EMG, NCS and Physical Exam. Benign Fasciculations Syndrome diagnosis. My fasciculations started in my calf muscles 11/20/22. I hope I allow sufficient time to lapse before testing.🙏🏾❤️‍🩹💪🏾

    Good to hear! I think 99.9% of the time doctors are catching if anything nasty going on so I would try not to worry and live the life :) Did you get fascics after covid ?

    I’m not sure it’s started after an ER visit for neck pain. I found out morphine and contrast was injected in my IV.
