Hmm about Mayo study there is a misinformation on this site - the subjects had to have twitching for 2 years at least ,so if somebody developed ALS after 23 months, we wouldnt know it from this study. The timeframe was given by Mayo researchers - thats the dark side of this study. I still say, there should be all information, not just half..
So about Mayo study: None of followed subjects with twitching at least 2 years developed ALS in next 16 (and in few cases even 32) years.
Anyway, nobody from this site got ALS and most respected neurologists say the same: clean EMG, clean clinical means no ALS at this time.
