weakness

I'm just going to keep this short as I'm already 99% sure I have ALS and just want someone to confirm that my hands look like split hand syndrome. My symptoms started back in June of this year when I was pregnant with my son. I started to have random twitches all over which I still have today...

Dear All As some of you know, I lost my Dad to ALS four years ago in August 2014 and have struggled with both grief and health anxiety as a result. The health anxiety was terrible after my Dad passed, and it manifested itself in lots of "twitching" which was diagnosed as BFS from...

Hi, I am new to this forum. I’m going to try keeping this short. I am 29 years old and since the beginning of August I’ve been experiencing weakness/tightness in my right leg. It was mild then, but has gotten worse over the couple months. Sometimes I want to pull my leg because of weird...

Hi all, I'm 43years old and father of 3. I usually carry around my 2 year old son but this summer I found that my left arm just could not cope more then a few minutes when I usually can carry my son without any problems. I then fractured a finger on my left hand and had a cast for 2 weeks. When...

I’ve read the sticky note that said that this is not a progressive sensory disease. I felt immediate calm when I read that. But then personal experiences of people with ALS seem in line with what I am experiencing. For about 10 days I have experienced sudden muscle weakness. I am still a 5/5...
