I find the article to be inaccurate, but I'm not surprised. The medical profession is not good when something can't be defined..... Hard to explain. Easier to explain from a mechanics perspective. My GMC Envoy occassionally has the service engine soon light illuminate. Run the code and its engine not to temperature in 50 starts. Replaced water pump and thermostat. It still kicks on. Still not resolved. Mechanic wants to investigate further. Nope....I'll wait for it to break. That was 7 years ago. Still happens, but nothing has come of it.
You twitch when at rest or when muscle is in use. That confirms nothing. There only confirmation with MND is weakness. All other tests or indications means nothing. Never heard of a patient being diagnosed with MND that didn't have weakness.
I twitch at rest, I twitch when muscle is in use. Always have, first time I twitched was in my back during shoveling, It was like popcorn going off as I was shoveling snow during a huge snow storm many moons ago.
