Do I have Als?

[moe53]

Hi, i am an athletic 15 year old, about 5 days ago i noticed that my left thigh started to twitch, this usually happened when i was sitting or relaxing.Also now i am starting to get random twitches all over by body like a couple twitches in my bicep, then my calf.  Also a couple days before i  noticed the twitching, i felt like a was walking weirdly, my left leg felt like it just wasn't walking normally, when i asked my friends they said it i walk normal,the only time notice my self walking weirdly, is when i am anxious, worried ( all the time). Also i have now noticed that my left leg feels a little weak, but only when i think about it, and when i am playing a soccer game or enjoying myself i dont usually notice the weakness. I have noticed that i am an extreme hypochondriac and i am almost always worried about a disease. Do u think i have als or is this due to stress and anxiety. I am really worried because the symptoms i am experiencing are the symptoms of als, like my weakness, walking weirdly, and twitches are all located in the same leg. Could anyone explain to what wrong or give any feedback. Thankyou.

And it could be something as simple as dehydration or having some electrolyte imbalance. A simple blood test would clear that up for you.
