I went to a neuromuscular specialist who said the ALS symptoms that I thought I had were definitively not ALS based on his exam of muscle strength and reflexes etc...I feel better and then I read something like this and makes me think that I still might have this ( I have subjective muscle...
Hi,
Thank you in advance for your time. I've read many of the posts here and I am in a similar situation.
My grandmother died at age 76 from ALS, and it has given me a lot of anxiety over the past 10 years related to it. I also had a more distant relative (a cousin of my father) who I believe...

Hi All,
I have been reading a lot of the posts on this site for the past week and half and decided to finally post my own story.
I have been dealing with a lot of weird symptoms lately and decided to see a neurologist about it earlier this week who specializes in neuromuscular issues and has...
I’m sorry to be back but, I feel as if things could be progressing. I’ve noticed what I believe to be muscle wasting of the outer muscles on my right foot. I also have a large “dent” in my calf. My whole leg feels unstable and fatigued. I walk on my instep and I’m afraid this is happening...
Hi everyone.
First time poster, I first want to thank all of you for what you do on this site. Truly inspirational.
I will be brief. My symptoms are twitches mostly in left calf ( about a month now) but sporadically other places ( all over).

Hi all,
First of all, thanks in advance to anybody who takes the time to reply to my post. I am a 32-year-old caucasian man currently living in Los Angeles. My symptoms started about 8 months ago with some intermittent muscle twitching that I noticed on and off in my neck, biceps, legs, all over...

First, let me start by saying that I am here due to symptoms that have been concerning me for almost month. They are new symptoms that have arisen from other symptoms that have been occurring for over three months now, starting at the end of November.
It all started when I had two bowls of...
Hello everyone,
I posted back in October about some worrisome symptoms that I was having. The main symptom being a feeling of being off balance while standing. That has gotten worse. Since then, some things have changed. My calves have constant fasciculations. They never stop. I was very...
