My name is Robin and I am a 56 year old woman from Miami. You guys are very supportive, and I was hoping you could give me some feedback on some troubling symptoms I have been having. I started having twitches in November, it all began with my left ankle. The twitches quickly spread to my arms legs, I went to a neurologist that specializes in ALS and he thought it was not likely. He set
me up for an EMG, but I can't get an appointment till the end of April. I have a new symptom, fasciculations next to the left side of my mouth and I feel some tightness in that area. I have general tiredness, but no weekness. My speech is normal, and no swallowing problems. I do feel a tightness on the left side of my mouth, sometimes it's worse than others. I have had the twitching there only a few times, but it scares me. My body twitching is everyday but not bad, any feedback would be great.
