Hello
for 1 month I feel weakness in my right arm and leg, I also have ataxia, more pronounced in my right arm, despite this I can still write, open bottles, run, climb stairs, lift my arm, however, objects such as backpacks or bottles are heavy for me, and I also have muscle pain, I have fasciculations all over my body, although more frequent on the right side of my body, they are not persistent and usually last a few seconds, this was what made me suspect ALS.
before this, since May, I feel a tingling in the tongue, this It was accompanied by fatigue and dyspnea. since June I feels tingling in my left hand, this tingling has spread to my right hand, although it is not persistent, and occasionally my feets tingles.
I also have nausea, sometimes I have diarrhea and I have recently been developing lactose intolerance.
but, something that has me very scared is that I have dysphagia, this occurs mostly towards solids, this made me suspect bulbar onset.
I have been very stressed and worried, symptoms like dysphagia or weakness improve when I forget about ALS and get worse when I get stressed about it again, I already went to the orthopedist and they did X-rays of my spine, nothing interesting came out, just a slight scoliosis .
Although recently I have been suspecting MS or vitamin deficiency, but there is no study to confirm it.
