Sympton Query

[Richard Holmes]

Hi I’ve read some of the articles on here. For the past 8 weeks I’ve had twitching over my body - face, shoulders, back, legs etc. My right leg also feels ‘different’ ie weak, light, tight. I’m conscious of it. ’m concerned about MND. Any thoughts re these symptoms please? Appreciated.

Twitching is common, nonspecific, and meaningless in the absence of muscle function failure which you have not described. Feeling weak is not the same as clinical weakness noted by a physician. Therefore you have not described ALS. Please see a doctor if you’re concerned.
