My mother is complaining of leg twitching at rest and early in the morning. She has PLS, in her legs and moving into her hands. She has shaky hands, and is dropping things, but really it’s the twitching in her legs that bothers her. She thinks it’s making them weaker, and she is having trouble supporting herself to use a rolling walker. I know this is a classic symptom of ALS, but wondering if it’s ever seen in PLS and not connected to muscle wasting?

Yes indeed, I sure have twitching. Mine come with overuse/fatigue (which is all the time now). However, this may not be your mum's trouble- if she's experiencing function change, it might be a good idea to get it checked out.
