sensory symptoms

    Looking for insight.

    Hello everyone. I’m a 30 year old female and would love to get some feedback from people with more knowledge of these things than myself. So this all began at the beginning December. I noticed my hands would go limp for a second and then be fine. I googled and googled and figured maybe it was...

    I don’t have ALS

    I was dealing with some pretty bad health anxiety this past week, of course after watching the VICE news piece on ALS and an HBO movie called “Jenifer.” I’m very sure I don’t have it now because I’ve only been experiencing a feeling of weakness, primarily in the hands, that sometimes is felt in...

    Reversible breathing issues with IVIG in ALS and MG

    Dear PALS, I've had an earlier thread regarding my mother, who's diagnosis is still uncertain. Both Laurie and Karen were very helpful. A short intro: My mother is a very complex case and has shortness of breath, orthopnea, loss of strength in upper arms and some atrophy of the deltoid...

    MS and ALS connection?

    Hi everyone, I have been diagnosed with multiple sclerosis (MS). However, along with sensory symptoms attributable to my MS, I also experience a lot of muscle twitching. I've read the sticky, am aware that muscle twitching is not diagnostic of ALS, and that I don't seem to have any of the...

    Concerning Onset of Symptoms

    Hi. I'm a 31 year old male who began experiencing symptoms in late February. Would like to know if there is real concern for ALS and not just fearing the worst. My symptoms started with my arm suddenly jumping off my computer mouse at work one day. Thought it was odd at the time but moved on...

    Diagnosis question, thank you.

    Hello. Thank-you all for taking the time to read this. I've posted on here before over the past year or so (I think that's the timeframe) but noticed that my threads have been closed so have started a new thread. I hope that is okay. Very briefly, I have a history of some symptoms that look...

    Sensory symptoms?

    Hi, I have supposed "probable ALS". But I have some weird symptoms that the doc dismisses so quickly, and I wonder if anyone else has experienced anything like them. When I shower and shampoo, about a minute after towel drying, I get horrendous itching of the scalp and palms of my hands. It...

    Possible symptoms?

    Before writing further, I want to note that I have read the Common Concern and getting a diagnosis stickies. I hesitated to even describe my symptoms because several would seem to point in contrary directions from ALS. However, I'm going to post here regardless because (1) some symptoms do...
