Have had fasciculations in my tongue and calves mostly. Also trouble with slurred speech and swallowing issues. Had EMG test. Tested normal. I had nasal pharyngeal cancer in 2012 along with radiation & chemotherapy. So not really sure where all this is going. Obviously ALS on my mind but no weakness just issues with swallowing tongue etc. just wondering if anyone had these symptoms after having radiation treatments. Really worried about ALS with these symptoms.

Hi @rcathey17, welcome. I moved your message to this existing discussion that @pash86 recently started. Like you, ALS looms as a frightening thought. Are you currently in the process of getting futher testing?

Hi, I was just wondering if you have an update? I feel similar. I am having tongue twitches I can feel and sometimes see. My calf muscles are sore and any use of other muscles make them sore the next day such as forearms. I am waiting for my neurologist app in 5 weeks and the anxiety is excruciating.

@rcathey17 can you please describe your tongue fasciculations (or someone)
I have some strange feeling in my mouth, in my tongue.

When I open mu mouth and put the tongue a litlle bit oustide my mouth it is possible to see movement and in the bach, in the left side
