I'm really scared that I have ALS. So much so it is consuming my life and my family. About two months ago just before going in for gallbladder surgery, I noticed twitching in both of my calves.
I met with my neuro shortly after and he performed the standard strength tests. I continued to have...
I am awaiting a diagnosis. I see an ALS specialist in September, and I will have my EMG repeated then. Neuro told me that in 6-12 months I would know either way. I have hyper-reflexes in my legs, spasticity in legs and jaw, atrophy of right calf and foot, a dirty EMG and what appears to be the...
