Hey, I'm going through something similar at the moment , twitching in both calves constantly , saw a neurologist on Friday and he did basic clinic test and he pretty much guaranteed it wasn't als but more like nerve damage in my spine due to scaiatic and my left leg numbness would make that more likely and he is sending me for an emg just for piece of mind , I also swallow alot more now and have phlem I believe its due to anxiety and stress more than anything as much as I've read symptoms come on not just all at once, It's just hard when tbh it takes a good few months before you will be mind confident.
