    Old thread closed. Slight update Jay654

    Update: Tuesday afternoon I had my EMG. I don't get the results until July but the doctor who performed it said "Well the good news is this isn't Motor Neuron Disease" . My right quadricep where I have atrophy which I have been having trouble with especially the most twitching, came up with a...

    Old thread closed. Slight update Jay654

    Hello again guys, Haven't posted for a while as I wanted to kind of ignore all symptoms and things that possibly pointed towards ALS/MND & give my mind a rest.

    Is this likely to be early signs of ALS?

    I am no medical professional but in my opinion; the weakness, the failure in the muscle to strengthen and grow even after constant use, the atrophy, the localised twitching, no pain.

    Is this likely to be early signs of ALS?

    Slight update & question regarding advice. One of my best friends partner is a physiotherapist for stroke patients. She had a look at my arm (not my legs) that's been bothering me and noticed the twitching but also the atrophy in the right forearm and right tricep, to be truthful I had seen it...
