Hi.
i have been worried sick in the last week. I have been having a lot of twitches mostly in thumb and middle finger in right hand. I even wake up from the twitches. I have been feeling some weakness in my right leg for a month now and I never thought of als I just think about it now cuz of the twitches, I have been having painful cramping on arch of right foot and calf since a week (I have been doing a lot of self check strength with feet maybe It’s because of that) , although when I went to doctor the physical strength test in legs were normal. While doing the neuro exam I did see my left leg lift more up than the right but he hasn’t said anything. But I’m still scared it was hyper flexion I just didn’t ask. I have been having a left shoulder tendinitis since July. Could it all be linked to beginning of als? I am really scared.
