Thenar muscle wasting/atrophy fears

Hey guys I’ve been in here a few times and talked about my fears of ALS and since I’ve posted last I’ve have an emg which was clean but my thenar muscle was not tested for some reason on either hand. My left hand has been my main hand of concern and I see a “dent” in my thenar muscle when I flex it across my hand to the other side. My left hand has been painful and weak (probably from constant testing) and I’m looking to let go of this last bit of fear I have over me. Does this look like muscle wasting to anyone?

Hey all, I’ve posted here a couple of times and I’m trying to wrestle with the twitching I’m having all over and my mind telling me it’s ***. I have tongue twitching that currently is freaking me out. It doesn’t happen at rest in my mouth but does when I stick my tongue out then stabilizes when I really stick my tongue out as far as it can. Been to a neurologist that said she didn’t think it was concerning and I’ve done a normal emg on my limbs but I’ve have no bulbar EMG yet. I’ve attached a video please let me know what you all think I’m freaking out over here.
