Thank you for your time. I am a 19 year old male, in 6 months i'll be 20. So about 3-4 months ive been suffering from drop foot in my right foot. I've decided to have EMG and doctor asked me if i experince twitches and if i am into sports or exercising (which i am not) and said results are unexpected so she suggested me to see a much more experienced doctor. The reason why i am concerned about ALS is that i've been experiencing some twitches, i have a drop foot and 'unexpected emg results'.
For twitching i can say that i am having those small twitches for a long time (3 or 4 years maybe?) and the moment i touch or move my twitching muscle it dissapears. I've been extremely anxious for the last hour so twitching is happening much more often, especially at a localized area that have been twitching for years.
The drop foot issue is concerning me even more. I realized i cant quite tighten the muscle in my calve but when i somehow can i can feel it is as tight as my left calve. I can't say i am experiencing weakness or having difficulty in walking, i can walk with my toes.
Now i am extremely anxious. What is your opinion?
