SCARED FOR ALS
Dear all,
Im a 22 year old female..In the past year i have experience weird symptoms.Muscle fatigue weakness, cramps especially localised in right arm and leg..
The past 2 weeks i have noticed that my leg muscles (back ,buttock, leg, calf) twich a lot of times during the day.This week it has become more intense..
Especially when im laying my legs especially in my right one(back ,buttock, leg, calf).It goes away after i move...I do not exercise much so it couldnt be from that..Also my torso muscles seem to twich and today i have noticed that my left cheek(the area below my eye) has started to have several twiches..
I havent noticed any profound problem in walking yet thankfully but im terrified it could be ALS.The symptoms are and it worries me...I know that from my age is not typical but i laso know tha it does happen..
Please tell me what you think..
THANK YOU

It looks like a Localized Seizure since it is on one side.
