First off, thank you for reading and please note that I have read the sticky as well as other comments/posts. I am simply looking for clarification to confirm my suspicions.
I am currently 24 (25 in a month) and over the past few weeks have noticed a stiffness in my pinky finger (sometimes accompanied by joint pain) but no noticed weakness (perceived or clinical). Additionally (say past four days), I have noticed a twitch in my index finger on the same hand that may happen ~5 times a day that forces the finger to noticeably move side to side. Again I have not seen any atrophy or experienced any weakness and given this as well as the occasional pain near the pinky finger and index finger (top of the hand) I am assuming this is more related to an ulnar nerve issue than ALS/MND.
Just looking to confirm that I am understanding the sticky and disease progression correctly and thank you for your time.
