Hi im a 29 year old male my story starts with one day in may 2018 i notice twitching in my calves then few weeks notice them in my arms , scalp, tounge, and eyelid not constant maybe a few pops
Over time my right leg felt stiff , felt like it would buckle and heavy feeling also if i would rub my toes across something it would feel jittery. Few weeks my both legs started to feel heavy also my tounge feels thick and feels like im slurring my words also started having swallowing issues not with food or drink but siliva
Went to my neuro 5 months into this sent me for an EMG on my right side. Came back clean except a 1 fasic and poly at wrist asked him to poke my tounge and that came back clean
After few weeks my left thumb started giving my problems hard to use feels tight like starined i notice a fine constant twitch in between my thumb and forefinger my thumb is getting worse does thsi sound like ALS
