Twitching in my Elbow - Is it ALS?

[HaleyBlu]

In my lower bizep near the inner elbow, the twitch start with a thumper and is followed by very rapid machine gun-like, fluttering smaller twitches, all this i can see and feel clear, it last for 1 or 2 seconds and start again after some seconds. Its nearly constant since 2 days and freaked me out. Have to hotspots at the same time, same side of my body.

I have read here that ALS twitches are flickery, and this twitch feels flickery. Anybody have similar expirienced.

Thanks and all the best,
Florian

Florian,
easy! BFS twitches can also be flickery. One year ago I had flickery twitching in my palm (on outside between wrist and pinky). It lasted for one week NON-STOP. Believe me, every second when I had my palm relaxed it twitched. It was very fine, flickery twitching - I could hardly see it.

One year later I have still the same strenght in that palm and no signs of atrophy in that place.

Don't worry. It will go away soon.

Marcin
