I don't take posting here lightly at all as I know many of you have been deeply pained by ALS (my grandfather passed due to Parkinsons) but I am concerned. I absoultely and a believer in following what your Dr (trained professionals are saying) but want a second thought from folks who have gone...

Updating this, I had my appointments and also got in for an EMG as well. No clinical weakness found anywhere, and my EMG/NCS results were all normal other than fasics in the tib ant and gastroc. Both the community neurologist and EMG neurologist were fairly confident that it looks like a case...

I am a 26 year old male from Wisconsin. Since April, I have been diagnosed with gastroparesis and have noticed muscular twitching all over my body in both of my thighs, arms, neck, and abdomen. Both of my legs often feel fatigued (like jelly) and I have noticed my thighs have been constantly...

I had another post in this forum and it was closed, so I can't post to it any longer. (past thread: Confused About EMG) It has been three years since all of this has started. I have switched Neurologist, since I was unable to get any type of answer from my first one. He did two brain MRI's...
