Scared and need advice please

[RedFlame]

I am falling back into the ALS/MND spiral and have been extremely worried the past couple weeks as a result of new symptoms that I fear could be related to ALS. I do hope anyone can give me some insight / advice on this as I am struggling with dealing with this.

In this time, I have been experiencing a nerve sensation in my left index finger. The best way to describe this is that the sensations feels like a combination of nerve buzzing / electrical shock / the stretching or snapping of a band. There is also tingling and a bit of numbness and it is all in my left index finger.

Weirdly, it is not constant but happens in certain movements / motions. For instance, I notice it heavily when I am driving and stretch my fingers out to put the radio on or change gear. It also happens often if I replicate these movements and extend my finger outwards. It feels really weird and it's like I can feel the entire nerve down that finger react and snap.

I can't help but worrying this is related to ALS. I have had twitching for years all over my body which doctors have reassured me about, but now anytime any nerve-related thing happens, I can't help but think it is related to something neurological like ALS. If anyone has any thoughts on this, I would be so grateful.

I can't diagnose you but I can say I have had similar over several parts of my body over the last ten years, all have rectified themselves. So I am inclined to think it's nerve related and repairable. Most of the time it was during high intense anxiety, stress or worry.

understand your concerns about your recent symptoms. While it's natural to worry, it's important to remember that ALS is a rare disease and many other factors can cause nerve-related symptoms. Schedule a consultation with your doctor to discuss your concerns and rule out potential causes. In the meantime, practice relaxation techniques, avoid self-diagnosing online, confide in someone you trust, focus on the present, and prioritize self-care.
