Subject: Fear of ALS

Forum: The Neurology and Neurosurgery Forum

Hi iam in my 2nd month of a severe ALS panic that is destroying my life
Here are my symptoms
I feel like a can't talk right i feel like iam  slurring my words but everyone
around me says i sound fine . I can swallow fine but sometimes it feels like something gets stuck in my throat and my tongue feel strange like its to big. My mouth is always dry. I wake up with a very sore and stiff neck every morning                                                                                  
I don't have any weakness in my muscles but at times my left arm and leg
feel strange they feel weak like i can't move them  but i can. I know i sound crazy but am real scared.  I've been to my doctors and he says it  anxiety I am under alot of stress. my 4yr. old son has a rare brain .
but i can't believe that stress can cause all these symtoms (symptoms).
Thanks for listening.
Iam 34  and a mother of three small children
  
All my symptoms come and go
Thanks again  mary
