Hey everyone thank you all for this forum and the time y’all take to talk to people who are concerned about ALS. I have read the sticky note and it was very helpful. However I do have a question about twitching. I have been having twitching in my tongue for a week or so now. It does not seem to be constant but I do feel it daily. Sometimes it feels like my tongue is moving and other times like some one is squeezing the tip of it. It’s not painful but I am aware of it and can fee when it’s happening. I do not have any weakness that I know of my speech is fine and I seem to be swallowing ok, but I am very concerned about my tongue. I saw on the sticky that twitches without weakness or meaningless but I guess my question is with bulbar onset can or do the twitches start first in the tongues. Meaning will I eventually develop weakness or does weakness come first. I appreciate anyone who can help me with this or give me tour thoughts on if this sounds like early onset bulbar ALS
