Default Worried about ALS from results

Hi all,

I have had problems now for about 8 months concerning my health, and recently started to have weird sensations in my calf muscles on both legs and tingling in hands, feet, and legs. I also have stiffness in hands, and feet. I feel like when i put pressure on my legs they feel weak, and sometimes i feel strain on them when walking. My doctor recently did a muscle test and told me my numbers were in the 80's but should be in the 100's for my age (25). I have been so scared that ALS is a possibility.

My lymph nodes are swollen and my throat is sore and voice is hoarse. It feels harder to swallow also recently. I know no one here can diagnose, but i wondered if anyone has experienced anything similar? I have to wait until the 21st to see a neuro, and i guess no matter what anyone says will matter if i have it, but i guess i am just coming here to vent. Anyone have thoughts?
