Hello,

I have been experiencing twitches at various parts of my body for over 2 weeks now. It started with a single twitch in one of the fingers of my left arm. Then moved to my toes on the left foot, then my left calve and thigh, left side of the neck and left eye. Since a few days, I also have sporadic twitches on my right side (toes, thigh, back, upper arm), although way less pronounced. I have no other symptoms. Google says it could be ALS, so I am driving myself crazy. Has anyone had smth similiar? I would appreciate your help a lot!

    Started with muscle spasm in back a week ago. Then a day later, foot started having some nerve sensations + Pain in neck and shoulders.

    Later, Nerve tingling and twitching started to move up legs.

    Currently twitching throughout body, though legs are still where it happens most. Strange nerve sensations in legs, Intermittent numbness in hands and feet, muscle cramps at various points in the body.

    This is extremely scary and I cannot sleep.

    It is kinda worse when I rest as I am more aware of these symptoms then.

    I am a 35 years old (otherwise) healthy woman and am about to lose it.

    they checked my chemical panel (e.g., electrolytes) and nothing was off.
