Hi everyone. I've been having a lot of muscle twitches mostly in my calf areas and thighs but all over as well. Also my left calf feels weaker than my right even though I can still walk around on my tip toes and heels on both feet. Another thing I noticed is that it is difficult to straighten...

Hello ALS Community, Thank you for taking the time to read my post. I am curious if this description resonates with any of you: I am in the process of being worked up for possible ALS (EMG study in a week). My neurologist is suspicious of ALS, but is also considering other possible causes of...

I posted at the beginning of January however my thread was closed which is why I have opened this thread. Since I was explaining my story in depth I already felt that my lengthy explanation was enough for people to have to get through without me attaching photos too. However, I briefly...

I'm new here, and I was hoping to get some input on symptoms I've been having. Starting 2 months ago May 2018 I started getting tingling in my right hand. That was quickly followed by twitching in that hand, the tingling spread to both hands and both feet, then the tingling went away after...

Hello. I want to first say thank you for any information or insight you may be able to give me. I also wanted to say that my thoughts are with you all that have been affected by this disease. I am concerned due to a few reasons. About a week ago, I noticed something was "off" with my left foot...

Hi, long story, so bear with me. About 6 months ago I had an unexplained weight loss of about 30 pounds in about a month. I chalked it up to anxiety induced weight loss as I was dealing with some very stressful situations in life at the time and didn't think much of it. About 4 months ago I...
