Hello
I'm 40 years old male from Poland. These are my symptoms:
January 2019: Fasciculations in calves, 2 weeks later everywhere and 24/7 in calves. Neuro exam was ok, except some bilateral brisk reflexes.
April 2019: Second neuro exam also only brisk reflexes. Emg - 5 muscles tested, conclusions: without electrophysiological signs of neurogenic damage, fasciculations most likely benign.
September 2019: today neuro exam: brisk reflexes, bilateral Sterling sign and ankle clonus (3-4 beats L and 1-2 beats R). No Babinski, muscle strength ok, no other abnormalities. Control in six months.
I didn't notice any weaknesses. I can easily do all everyday activities. I'm worried about clonus and the intensity of fasciculations. I think this could be the beginning of ALS.
I will be greatful for your opinions. Thank you in advence and sorry for my poor english.
