Default Fasciculations

Been having these twitches in the muscles, mainly on the left side of the body. I asked my NS if I were heading to ALS and he did not give a definite yes or no. He did check the tongue for fasciculations and did not see any. He told me that would probably be a sign for ALS.

My NL told me that it was nerve endings not functioning well. Looking this up I did find an explanation of bengnine muscle fasciculation. Still do not know if there is a way to control these or if anything can be done. Any light on the subject? Thanks
