Hello!
I'm a 25 years old male German and I have fear of having ALS.
One week ago, I started recognizing a weakness in both legs.
First I only noticed some different feeling in my right leg and feet when pressing the gas-pedal of my car. But that was just the beginning. The weakness of my legs didn't get better till today, instead it got worse.
Today my legs feel like heavy weights and it's harder for me to go upstairs or to climb up a ladder for example.
Some days after the weakness started (and after I googled and found those "wonderful" three letters) it started to twitch in different parts of my body, but most times the twitches are in my legs.
Are these common symptoms of a beginning ALS? Can't think of anything else...
