The cause of sporadic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis ( about 90% of cases) is largely unknown but probably involves a combination of genetic and environmental factors. About 10 percent of people with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis have a familial form of the condition, which is caused by an inherited genetic mutation.

∙ 9y agoIt's an autoimmune disease. That means your immune system attacks your own body/nervous system. ALS just happens. It's nothing you have done or have not done. It usually affects more females than males. It usually onsets around mid-age. Any other question, feel free to email me @ rbscorolla@hotmail.com and put ALS in subject area and I will answer to the best of my knowledge. I have read numerous research articles on this disease and also work in healthcare as a therapist.

I would like to thank Ultimate Life Clinic for reversing my father's Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS).

How do you differentiate between benign fasciculation syndrome and ALS?
In BFS, the fasciculations only occur when the muscles are at rest. In ALS, they are consistent. Even when you walk, you will have the fasciculations. And ALS is characterized by severe muscle weakness. A fasciculation is a small twitch in your muscles, like your muscle going up and down in like a heart beat. In ALS you would have weakness or atrophy/weakness.In BFS you would not.Fascis in both can look,feel and last exactly the same.FASCICS MEAN NOTHING if you have no severe,and i mean no other severe symptoms.So to answer your question you cannot tell by looking at them.
