symptoms

I am very concerned about some symptoms I have been showing lately. Actually, for several years I have had shortness of breath, some times it is worse than others. Lately, my big toe on my left foot has been cramping. My index fingers and pinky fingers on both hands sometimes twitch. Three weeks ago I was walking out of a pizza place and I fell for no reason. I was not concerned about any of this until Monday when I was listening to a program on the radio about a man who has ALS and they started listing the symptoms. I am a 40 year old female and I know it is more common in men and in older people. Should I be concerned? I don't know how to get to the part of this web page where answers are posted so can you send the answer to my e-mail address.
