    Worried about some symptoms and emg result

    I just have a couple questions. I realize this is not an anxiety board nor are you all doctors. I have been doing a lot of research online after I had an emg of my left arm. I looked up some things that were on my results and something that kept coming up was ALS. I knew what ALS was before...

    Bodywide Fasciculations, cramps for past 8 months

    Happy to say no weakness other than rubbery legs but I’ve read that some ALS presents as sudden widespread fasics. Needless to say this is freaking me out. I’ve also read that ALS fascics are very frequent. Mine are nonstop and occur every few seconds. Every day is a new symptom. I have...

    Sorry to find myself here but glad I found you

    Finally, here. I have been a longtime lurker. I have been tempted to ask questions, but ultimately I decided to wait. And I waited for a long time. Having been finally diagnosed, I will let you know how everything began. In the spring of 2016, I started noticing some problems with my left...

    Don’t know where to turn, very worrying set of symptoms

    Hi everyone and thanks for taking the time to read my post. I am currently crippled by the fear that my worsening symptoms suggest ALS. For a time I put them down to anxiety but I can no longer accept that explanation as everything just seems too coincidental. It all started in August- I...
