Hello, i'm 23 years old guy, 4 years ago I started twitching everywhere, torso,biceps, calf , I developed a symptom that really look like writer cramp : When i'm writing with my keyboard, my hand can sometimes jerk in odd position, they litteraly jump from the keyboard sometimes
Its aggravated by lack of sleep and anxiety, I have some month where I have not this symptom at all, it doesnt always occur, for example im writing this text totally fine, it occur maybe 5 or 6 times per day and only when im writing ! , it doesnt occur when im playing video game, or brush my teeth
I have some other symptom : Shaking when doing some action ( squat for example, push up... ) , i have this symptom for 5 years i think
I've tested myself for Hoffman sign and its positive on both side, I told to my aunt to help me elicite it like neurologist video and it was definitly positive on both side
I have internal vibration
Sometimes I have perceived weakness on my right arm that come and go, but my doctor told me my strenght is totally fine , also he told me to tap with my index finger as much as possible on his smartphone , in order to count the number of tap within 10 second , I scored 70-75 on both hand
I also tested myself the babinski sign, I used all the possible variant and did it perfectly like the video : my toes never moved , i think its a neutral response ?
Does it sound ALS ? especially the hoffman sign ... and the jerking...
