    Twitching/muscle cramps 9 months later

    Hi everyone! I just wanted to give an update. I have been taking my vitamin B12 and vitamin D supplements, but my symptoms haven’t changed. My left calf and thigh still twitch constantly. Sometimes it almost feels like the muscles are vibrating and I can see them moving. It occasionally happens...

    Twitching/muscle cramps 9 months later

    Hi everyone! Thank you all so much for your advice and kind words. I have been feeling much less anxious this week. My neurologist's office called me a few days ago to let me know that I have low vitamin D and vitamin B12 and prescribed me supplements for each. I am wondering if that could have...

    Thank you so much. He did not even mention it during the exam, I just saw it on the printed out medical note that I got at the end of the visit. Today's appointment definitely helped my anxiety surrounding my symptoms and it was reassuring to see that an experienced neurologist really was not...

    Twitching/muscle cramps 9 months later

    Hi everyone, I hope you are all doing well. I just wanted to provide an update as I had an appointment with a new neurologist today. He was very helpful and listened to all of my concerns - he did a neurological exam and most everything was normal (reflexes and strength were normal). The only...

    Thank you for your reply. I’m not sure if this is the correct assumption- but since I’ve been having muscle twitches since I was sick in May 2022, would I be noticing marked weakness by now if it were due to ALS? I think I’m just concerned because they are now concentrated to my left calf and...

    I understand, thank you so much. I messaged my primary care doctor and she recommended that I try a multi vitamin and increase my water intake. She didn’t seem to feel that it was necessary for me to see a neurologist since this has been going on for 9-10 months now and it occurred right after I...

    Twitching/muscle cramps 9 months later

    Thank you so much. I stopped worrying about it for a while after my MRI, CT, and MRA of my head and neck came back normal, but then I started to worry that they all came back normal because the issue was actually ALS. I have been having twitches mainly in my left calf and it feels sore, which is...

    Previous thread Hi everyone. I am a 22 year old female and I posted in this forum a few months ago after I began to experience some strange symptoms. I was sick in April 2022 and my symptoms began after that. I was experiencing widespread fasciculations, blurry vision in one eye, perceived...

    Hi! I still have not found out what is going on - but it seems that my doctors suggest that it is related to whatever viral illness that I had right before my symptoms began. None of them were concerned about it being ALS, and I believe that it is quite rare for individuals in their 20s to have...

    Could this be ALS at 21 years old?

    Thank you all for your help. It’s sounding like this definitely isn’t ALS. In regards to following up about my vision, I’ve seen an optometrist, been to the ER, and followed up with an ophthalmologist, neurologist, and even a neuro-ophthalmologist. After a brain CT and MRI, none of them can...
