A member asked:

Do muscle twitches start before weakness in als ?muscle twitches for past 12 days.arm feels weird and that's arm w twitches but twitches other places

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Twitches: Muscle twitches are often present in ALS, but there are many causes of muscle twitching that are not ALS. For many people, such a symptom is entirely benign. It appears the internet information out there generally indicates ALS for muscle twitching- that is not what most of us would say in clinic.
