I’m a 29 year old female, I’ve been worried about als for 11 months, with problems with my thumb, but I got therapy and actually resolved my symptoms, but since I’ve started to use my thumb as normal, 4 weeks ago I noticed my shoulder started twitching and hasn’t let up, it’s persistent and also comes with heavy, tired arm, and I find it hard scrubbing overhead, I’ve read that muscle twitches that persist in one muscle is always bad, I’ve had brief muscle twitches everywhere for years but never one that stays, I’m that worried I’m losing weight because I cannot eat through the worry, I’ve called my GP and they’ve just sent me antidepressants. Any advice welcomed right now!
