BFS or ALS?

I'm having weird sensations in my legs as well. I just had an mri for my back by a spine Dr. I will get those results on the 28th. I also have an appointment with the neurologist on the 25th. I have muscle discomfort, like tight leg muscles, I have the sensation that my calves are being massaged but it's not pleasant. I have groin pain, heavy legs, and cramping sensations, cold temps are the absolute worst I'm on a walker right now. I'm 56 and my life has changed dramatically. I went to the ER and came out with gabapentin which I am on until I see my Dr. Mornings are the hardest because I wake up at three and wonder if my legs will hold me up. I had covid and went for an infusion, I did not get the vaccine.
I hope and pray you get an answer for what you are experiencing.

I have heavy legs and heavy upper arms and numbness in my groin area.I also have loss of feeling in the trunk of my body.I can't believe I can walk at all because of how weak I am.I had the Pfizer vaccine,but just the first two doses and no additional vaccines or boosters.I think all of these symptoms are brought on by covid,but I am sure the vaccines are not the Best either.Who knows what the side effects of those will be.When I went to the Specialist he found a Borderline antibody for Myasthenia Gravis.There are different types of Myasthenia Gravis and there are different types of Myasthenia diseases.You might want to get checked for it.They can be brought on by covid,infection or extreme stress.I was doing research and long covid clinics are using mestinon to treat long covid patients.Mestinon is the same drug used to treat Myasthenia Gravis. It helps the muscles and nerve signals to work properly.They also have been using it to treat Chrnoc Fatigue.I think Chronic Fatigue,Autoimmune diseases and Epstein Barr are all being set off in the body from Covid.
