Neuro exams were fine, but the did find something abnormal in my right arm in the last EMG. However, they said if it was ALS, there would be something called "fibrillations" and also "positive waves," which my EMG did not have. According to them, it seemed like an old, chronic injury to that arm.

I'm hoping that's all it is, but the twitching persists, and in many more places than just that arm (more so in the feet, calves and most recently the face/neck area).
