Okay, I'm worried again! Man, I thought I was over this. My hand is really prickly and tingling constatly all day. What is it?? Also, my shoulder blade on that side is sore, liked I pulled something. Could they be related? It's driving me crazy! I read that it's not extremely common, but that...

Hi Everyone!I haven't posted in a while. I was doing a lot better until something recently set off my fear again :( Has anyone ever expereinced hand/arm tingling on one side? It's kind of like if your hand/arm falls asleep and is waking up again. Could it be anxiety causing this? Thanks!

Also, this statement is written in the text, and it's from a medical textbook. "A simple clinical rule is that fasciculations in relaxed muscle are never indicative of motor system disease unless there is an associated weakness, atrophy or reflex change."

I am going crazy! I mean I get twitches everywhere, but this one on my hand that just will not go away is impossible to ignore! I see and feel it constantly. It even interferes with activities. Like the other day I was getting my nails done and it was twitching the whole time. It was actually...

Thanks guys!

a twitch that is there one day, gone the next is benign :unsure:

Can anyone tell me what type of Magnesium has the most benefit? I got some yesterday, but it is just straight Magnesium, not a combo. The brand is Nature something, and it was only $2. Thanks.

I am totally freaking out and convinced I have ALS. I don't know what to do :crying: I've had widepread twitching that has now become more confined to certain areas. I've a hotspot on my hand for 2 weeks now. But has anyone ever felt like their neck was weak? Like it's hard to hold up their...

Okay, I do not understand these hotspots. I'm starting to wonder if this is a hotspot! I have the same one on the back of my hand beside my thumb. I keep thinking it's gone, and then it comes back. It seems to be an on again off again kind of thing. It'll be gone one day, then it comes back the...

So if you don't have to be stuck in a certain place to show presence of ALS because it's centrally located, why do they stick you soooo many places sometimes? Why can't they just do one stick then? I'm just wondering because my EMG felt very incomplete to me. It was done only 2 weeks into...

Okay, for the most part my twitching is better, which is great! I had a hotspot that lasted for two days straight, but finally went away. Although now I have a new symptom. I feel like my tongue is weak and have a lump feeling in my throat. Could this just be anxiety?? Also, if someone starts...

Just wondering how long your longest has been. I've had one nonstop now for 2 days straight, even in my sleep!!!

I have had the same hotspot for over two days (even in my sleep). This is the longest one I've had so far. It's on the back of my hand between my thumb and index finger. It's driving me crazy!! When will it end?? Just wondering how long you guys' hotspots have lasted. :unsure:

Hi Nikki, Reading your post was like reading one of my own! Mine started the same way. Although, I admit I am a HUGE hypochondriac! I have thought I had every disease under the sun, but this one by far is the worst. Other than that I'm a pretty normal 28, almost 29 year old. Mine actually...

This is kind of a hypothetical on an EMG. I was wondering if any of you had info about this or maybe your neuros have explained. I've read a lot of posts on here about getting an EMG too early, more than one EMG, etc. I was wondering, if someone had an EMG on a leg and arm, but it missed the...

I have a new twitch. I thought mine were getting better, but this morning I woke up and had a new, very violent twitch. It's on the top of my right hand, between my thumb and index finger. It's very strong. It comes and goes. Like 10 twitches all of sudden, and then none for about 5-10 mins...

I read somewhere that twitching during relaxation is benign, and twitching during muscle exertion is usually associated with ALS. I hope this is not true! Because lately I've been experiencing twitching in my arms/legs after using a certain muscle. Any thoughts?? Thanks!! :unsure:
