Hi all,
I just wanted to share a recent journey about my ALS scare and how the best thing to do is seek out a medical professional right away if your concerned. I feel like my story will resonate with others here lurking on this forum.

On May 5, 2017 my right thumb began to twitch. It was after playing WAY too many hours of video games, but I googled "thumb twitch" and came across als. Big mistake. I've had anxiety disorder since I was 14, so that tipped me over the edge. During that time I also suffered from a severe burning...

I’ve had body wide twitching for 6 months. Went to neurologist after three months and got a clean EMG on right arm and leg. Have been in a total of five times for clinical exams (due to my anxiety of ALS - requested appointments with him) - all of which have come back non remarkable. He told me...
