My feeling is that you are unlikely to have A.L.S. because your symptoms do not match the syndrome. It does sound like there is something wrong - an important A.L.S. test is an EMG, which is similar to an EEG: both measure neurological activity - the EMG measures this activity at the neuro-muscular junction, whereas the EEG tries to measure the activity in the brain itself. I am not a medical expert and have no idea what your symptoms could add up to; I know something about A.L.S. and your age and symptoms strongly imply that A.L.S. is extremely unlikely - its not very likely in most cases in any event: out of 300 million people there are about 5,000 'diagnoses' each year - usually of people who are a lot closer to fifty or sixty years old. A.L.S. is not so much a diagnosis as it is the result of the elimination of all other known_ possibilities and verification that the symptoms are the same. I hope you find out what is wrong and obtain effective treatment.
