Eu estou indo para postar desta vez em Inglês e uma vez em Português, por isso espero que entre os dois vai ser melhor para você entender. Estou usando o "google translate" para gerar o Português, por isso peço desculpas por qualquer erro pode haver!

Se eu entendi corretamente, você ainda não tem um diagnóstico de ELA (ALS), mas está preocupado que estes sintomas dos espasmos pode ser uma indicação da ELA (ALS). ELA (ALS) é uma doença neuromuscular, e eu concordo que os sintomas parecem ser de natureza neuromuscular. Eu não acho que você deve estar preocupado com ALS, necessariamente, embora. Há muitas coisas diferentes que podem causar estes sintomas. Eu recomendaria indo para ver um especialista neuromuscular fazer o teste. Eles podem fazer testes em seus nervos e músculos e exames laboratoriais a fim de olhar para várias causas.

Espero que isso seja útil para você! melhor,

I am going to post this once in English and once in Portuguese, so hopefully between the two it will be better for you to understand. I am using "google translate" to generate the Portuguese, so apologize for whatever errors there may be!

If I understand you correctly, you do not currently have a diagnosis of ALS but are concerned that these symptoms of the twitches could be an indication of ALS. ALS is a neuromuscular condition, and I agree that your symptoms do seem to be neuromuscular in nature. I don't think you should be worried about ALS necessarily, though. There are many different things that could cause these symptoms. I would recommend going to see a neuromuscular specialist to get testing. They can do tests on your nerves and muscles and order laboratory tests to look for various causes.

I hope this is helpful to you! Best,
Heiferly.
