    twitching

    Well I've been twitching widespread for 7 years...I've never had it checked out because my dr.said after 7 years I would have some other symptoms...my older brother had ALS and said he had twitches for 20 years before he got it...I'm wondering if I'm in big trouble...my dr. Said there was no way...

    Well that could be the case but like I said I never knew him in those 20 years....now if I could only figure out the weird feeling on my tongue that feels like a weak 9 volt battery on it for the last 5 years I'd be happy....or maybe not...lol

    You got me...I didn't know him during those 20 years...not sure how it works that was the main reason I got on here...All I know is what he said .... who knows maybe we are a family of twitchers..There are all kinds of different scenarios of the beginning of ALS from what I've read on...

    Sorry I didn't go into detail on the first post...I was just asking about long term twitching and hereditary ALS...I'm not lying to you about texting him...He said he had twitches for 20 years and knew something was wrong when they stayed in one spot on his arm and didn't go away....

    I said I never saw him or knew him....When he was diagnosed with ALL he got ahold of my mom to ask her things....we texted back and forth for awhile and that's when he told me he had twitches that long.....I've had them for 5 years....I guess if I have another 15 yrs of twitching before...
