Chronic Twitching and Aching

For 3 years i have been having twitches everywhee in my body, even eyelid and lips etc. These only twitch when muscles are relaxed, and stop when i move the twitching muscle. Then a year ago i started getting tingling and aching and some sharp shooting pains in my body, but mostly legs and arms. When this pain is evident in my legs i get a LOT of twitching in the arches of my feet. This happens in both feet. The twitching is still not 24/7, it is very little, just gets a little more when i have that pain /tingling pain in my feet. The pain feels like my feet and calves are so sensitive to touch. I am worried that i have ALS , like freaked out. No one in my family has ALS. The more i search about it the more symptoms i see in my self. BUT i have NO weakness, i can even do push ups and sit ups, pyll ups, bench ups etc. Iam just really worried. ALSO I AM ONLY 17 YEARS OLD. Do you guys think this is ALS ....or what?...could this be BFS? does BFS give you such pain?Also these "episodes of pain come and go every 35 months the last time i had pain was a week ago and before that was in january. The twitching is the only thing that stays, but it is so little that sometimes i forget i even twitch.WHAT DO YOU GUYS THINK THIS COULD BE?...answer the questions above pls, thnx in advance.
 
Let's see here...Full body twitches3 years with no weaknessPain, sorenessNo family history17 years oldI'd say there is approximately a 0.0% chance this could be ALS. Welcome to the club. Sorry son, you've got BFS. :D) Not that BFS doesn't suck too...
 
There isn't a person here who once thought he/she had ALS and didn't immediately started planning his/her own funeral. There also isn't a person here who actually had ALS and actually had to do that. Relax, you'll be fine. 3 years on your side is more than enough. If you had ALS you would have been in a wheelchair two and a half years ago!
 
Yep, the chances of you having ALS with the info you post are possibly slightly higher than me waking up one morning with Charlize Theron in bed with me...but I am not giving up hope ;)))
