Brief Answer:
ALS may not be the only possibility

Detailed Answer:
We understand your concern. Widespread muscle twitching for a month's suggests muscle restlessness and weakness. That could be because of anxiety, poor quality of sleep, physical overexertion, ALS and benign fasciculation syndrome. NCV and EMG test should be done for proper diagnosis. Please do regular physical exercise, meditation on daily basis. Please drink plenty of water. Avoid oily, spicy food. Take care.
