I have a quick question and hope someone will reply.
My right elbow for the last 3 weeks has had constant twitches and I'm starting to get really concerned. The muscles twitches happen are also up the back for my arm. Would like to know if you think this could be ALS. I have read that muscle twitches mean nothing although my mum passed from ALS and is always in the back of my mind. Mum is the first person in our family to be diagnosed with ALS. I have been to the doctor and he said he can't seen any muscle weakness although he can see and feel the twitches. He said he couldn't guarantee that it wasn't ALS and said I should have a nerve conduction study to rule it out.
I appreciate you advice as you must research and see a lot of posts similar to mine.
Thank you everyone for reading post and I send all of my love.
Regards
Anita
