Thank you so much for taking the time to read this. You guys are all amazing as I have been reading other threads before posting. I am just one nervous mom of two daughters ages 10 and 8. I have read the read before posting thread. I have been having twitches since November. It started in my right thumb. Since then it has turned into facicualtions in my right arm and left leg (all through calf). I have noticed my hand locks and makes me unable to hold things.
Recently I have had faciculations through my neck. My face and mouth are twitching as well as feel numb.
Now I know twitching means nothing. I had an EMG yesterday which came back normal on both arms. He also did behind upper back.
My fear is that I could have bulbar als. Not sure if this would show up in the emg on both arms or the neck? The fasiculstions in my neck and under my chin really concern me, as well as my mouth and face twitching.
Thank you for reading. Any insight would be greatly appreciated. I am grateful for my clean emg of both arms but nervous because of my symptoms in my throat and face.
