A member asked:
I think i have atrophy in my foot, and i fear als. i also have alot of fasiculations in my feet and in my legs?

Neurologist: Atrophy in an extremity definitely needs to be investigated. The best person to see is a neurologist. I wouldn't think that ALS is the top diagnosis. Getting some answers will certainly help. Good luck.
