Hi. I’m new to this site. I have not been diagnosed yet but am very concerned that I have ALS. I have read some of the forum and usual symptoms. While I don’t have the typical symptoms I am not sure what else I could have. I’ve noticed my thighs have been smaller a few months ago. Then small pains would occur here and there. I am very active so thought this odd as the pains would come when making a minor movement. Then noticed the muscle becoming very soft and many twitches, mostly on my legs. My legs feel very rubbery and can noticed my gait has changed a bit. This has all happened very fast, just over a month from the pains to noticeable weaker legs. Also noticing losing muscle in arms,neck as well.
I have also been having throat spasms/Hynix jerks every time I am trying to get into deep sleep. I am unable to get a good nights sleep for a week. I have a neurology appointment 7-20 but feel if it isn’t ALS then maybe it could be something as serious as fast as this seems to be effecting me. Thanks for any help.
