Default If your worried you have ALS

If your worried you have ALS, there is another condition that has the same symptoms in the beginning. I can fool doctors at first.

The condition is Beneign Fasciculation Syndrome (BFS). there's a wiki definition and a forum. I was told I didn't have ALS 30 years ago, but they couldn't explain why I had early symptoms of it.

Now days more and more neurologist know about it (but defintely not all). If your getting checked for ALS or your neurologist think its unlikely, then ask about BFS
