Hi! I am 33 year old female.

About a month ago, I started having body wide twitching and I started to feel my right thigh “tighten.” I wake up everyday and it is tight but there has been no signs of weakness. A couple days later my right bicep felt tight as well and my hand felt weak. I went to my PC and she said I don’t have ALS but she only did a quick strength test and said I didn’t have clinical weakness. A couple days ago, I started having dull cramps and tingling mainly in my legs but also my arms as well. The muscle tightness is now at the back of my left knee. I’ve had extreme health anxiety over this and it’s debilitating my life. I’ve only been able to get 3-4 hours of sleep each night for a month. I have an apt with a neurologist in 6 weeks. Does this sound like early ALS onset?
