Muscle twitching ALS ???

2024-06-23 14:53:42
I have been having muscle twitching for 3-4 days. Started in calf on Wednesday and it stopped in a day. It does not occur there anymore. And on Thursday it started in middle finger in left hand. Now it stopped in middle finger and started in ring finger. Apart from that I also have twitching in my legs but very minor and I would say unnoticeable. it does not accompany any weakness. Went to 2 neurologists. They did clinical examinations and said no ALS. I had MRI Brain in April this year and MRI Spine last year in October. They came clean. I also have had NCV yesterday. It was also normal. But these twitching are making me super anxious thinking about ALS. What should I do now ?

Twitching and fasciculations can be benign also and it aggravates with anxiety If all work up is normal mostly it is being fasciculations, so no need to worry just take regular neurophysician follow ups
