HI, I too am a "twitchy, leg bouncing person.. drives my co-workers nuts. In fact, you can put my 65 pound daughter on my leg and it'll still bounce up and down. I have spasticity, brisk reflexes and mutiple beats of clonus, but think this activity is more related the the neurogenics of...

Hi, I am not diagnosed with ALS, although going through the rule/out/testing, etc. In fact, taking a break from it all because I'm tired of benig poked and prodded. I figure If I have a NMD, it'll still be around when I get back to it.. Anyway, My symptoms are: weakness in left arm, left...

so.. all in all.. don't know (LOL)... I'll go Friday for the other EMG and see whats what.. which begs the question- when you had your EMGs, did all of the muscles tested show abnormalities (i.e., where there were no symptoms of weakness/faciculations?). I thought it was odd that she started...

Hi Ottowa girl, I've been crazy busy and a little late replying as well :) the EMG of my legs went well, normal. so that is encouraging! My faciculations on my left arm have spread to more of my back and am starting to have them in my right deltoid now (where the left started).. I video'd the...

Hi Ottowa, this is Angela (bedenbaughA).. i've logged on now as I'm about to go fo rmy EMG and was hoping I could get your opinion.. a few days ago, I was out at the merket and looked and SAW my hands.. and was shocked. To me, they are different, the left, where all the twitches are, seems...

Thanks so much..I'm so sorry for your diagnosis.. I've been thinking about mortality a lot and can only imagine what it was like receiving the diagnosis.. My heart goes out to you and I'll keep you in my prayers... It's hard to wait, mostly because I'm tired of being poked and prodded and just...

Thanks Ottawa. the jaw twitch is new :(. No lips or anywhere else, just my right jaw (shrug). Glad to hear my twitches sound out of the norm for ALS. My EMG is next Wednesday, which brings up another question-will the EMG be able to rule in or out ALS then? When you received your diagnosis- was...

Does anyone else have jaw twitches? Yesterday I took my kids to see Wreck it Ralph... Cute. :). I love going to the movies- mainly for the big tub of buttery popcorn ( of course!). Unfortunately, I only got through a few hand gulls before my jaw gave out.. Just couldn't chew anymore.. So I...

I'm so tired.. Getting Harder and harder to do things.. Today I couldn't open the fridge door with my left arm..I don't even want to go anywhere because just getting dressed and in and out of the car is so exhausting..the twitching is now in my entire arm, fingers are starting to get in on the...

also- I'm wondering, has anyone video'd their faciculations?. maybe mine are different? they hit the same muscles over and over, but it's not like they are jackrabbits.. it's more like; twitch (i can feel) in upper forearm, twitch (i can't feel) but my thumb moves, twitch, I can see in my...
