Yes! I have the same issue. Some days are better than others, but my muscles tire out absurdly quickly sometimes and get pretty achy if I push them past that point. You are not alone. Hang in there!

My pinky was where I first noticed problems, too. If I try to hold it in a certain position, it will just tap tap tap away. When I was doing my vision test to rule out MS, when I was holding the little thing over my eye, I could NOT keep my pinky still! Sometimes, my ring finger will do the...

Yes, a second post from me already. I know, I know. I am an anxious wreck. I can not seem to calm my nerves down.Now that I have seemed to have calmed my throat anxieties a bit, they have shifted back to my other "scary symptoms". I am just curious to what extent you all have experienced muscle...

Thank you! & I completely agree! I can read others' stories and think "Wow, you're fine! Stop being so scared!", but as far as mine is concerned? Fuggedaboudit! It's always different dealing with ANYthing when it is you. Nothing seems so bad or so good until you experience for yourself. I, too...

Thank you, Crissi. I understand what you are saying & understand the difference, now. At first, I thought a clean EMG cleared one from ALS completely. I now know that such is not the case if only UMNs are involved. So, my mind is stuck in this battle. My fascics are benign. After the EMG and...

And even more replies since I noticed the first one. First of all, I just want to thank you for your time and your thoughts. It really, really means a lot to me. You are correct. I am VERY anxious. It has been a big, emotional roller coaster through it all. "You might have this." ... "You...

Thanks for your timely and helpful reply. I didn't think about it until after you noted it, but it is significantly harder to go down a set of steps than up them. As for the rest, I suppose only time will tell, but I needed a venting place in the meantime, and this seemed like a good place for...

I apologize in advance. This is quite long, but I want to be as thorough as possible. I've never put my story out there before.This site has been a God-send to me for a bit of time. When my twitches started nearly 5 months ago, they had me panicking. In addition to the twitching, my only other...
