re: Ear Knocking & Eyes Twitching, PLEASE HELP!
Hi Paddy,
Some of us have discovered that unusual symptoms accompany ALS. Others have not. Sometimes the other symptoms are something other than ALS and sometimes they have no known cause. That is something your doctors will have to figure out.
My first suggestion is to find a good neuromuscular specialist to handle all ALS-related issues.
Regarding your ears, it might be beneficial to see an ENT. I had a lot of swallowing issues and, what I thought were breathing issues. Most of it was related to severe acid reflux.
I would absolutely say a full pulmonary function test is necessary.
We are here for you.
