Hello everyone,
My name is Kevin I am 19 and I have been having ALS symptoms for the past 3 months
It started with my bottom lip and hands feelings numb while driving one day. It got so bad that I had to pull over and call my mom to pick me up. After that every time I drove or went to church I would have episodes of this. I later figured out that it was whenever I talked a lot that this would happen. Since I’m always either talking or singing in the car and praying a lot in the church.
Throughout the first month that would happen and I would have paresthesia on my whole left arm mainly my finger tips.
My symptoms have been a tight throat that has not gone away for a weak maybe close to two.
My joint are abnormally cracking and have been noticed by others
I have a raspy voice which was also noticed by others and sometimes feel as if my tongue is numb or heavy but haven’t gotten slurred speech also I constantly feel like someone is choking me and it sometimes becomes difficult to breath I also want to add that occasionally I would feel pressure on my nasal area like between my eyes that when it gets bad I feel my whole head and face heavy
My muscles twitch all over my body, I have paresthesia on my left hand constantly, I realized that when I speak a lot my lip or kind of chin area goes numb as well as my hands starting with the left one and progressing to the right. Usually when I rest my legs feel very ticklish kind of weak and they start twitching a lot I also want to add that when I sometimes pick something up with my left hand I get a little electric rush threw my hand to my spine.
I went to the doctor and she said I could have a nerve disease and sent me to the neurologist. I am currently waiting for my neurologist appointment which is in more than a month and my symptoms seem to be progressing. My throat pressure seems to be getting worst. I feel as it is progressing to my toung and will sometimes give me a raspy voice. It’s becoming more difficult to breath and when I swallow I feel like there is something in my throat. I find my face twitching a lot and (I found that my bottom lip likes twitching more) as well as every muscle in my body but mainly my face and my right leg. My hands usually feel stiff as if they are cold. Could these be early progressing symptoms of ALS?
What really worried me is my throat and weakness and twitching feelings I have only been having noticeable symptoms for 3 months
Thank you for taking time out of your day to read I’ve been hesitating on posting because I do not want to waste anybody’s time any information would help thank you.
