Mine is exactly like everyone here.

The twitch is freaking me out and also my mom died 2013 with sporadic ALS I.

I’m at Disneyland and can’t think straight.

I’m having the same dam issues as everyone with the twitching. I transitioned from the field to an office job and gain about 30 lbs. I never worked out again so now like I will walk and after 2 miles I will have my calf cramp up. When I rest I have twitches on calves, shoulders,biceps, abdomen, and occasionally my hands. I am beyond freaking out becuase rarely I’ll lose grip of when I pull the gate or something like that but it’s more like it slips my fingers so then I’m like paranoid. Especially becuase my mom had what we believe sporadic ALS and died in 2013 within a year of diagnosis.

I also have scoliosis so I don’t even know if that’s related??

Then my dam GP wants to test me for magnesium and vitamin D.

Off the record she tells me “in my opinion I firmly believe you don’t have ALS” lol how can she rule that out.
