im 16m and im very scared of als. Sometimes when i eat i feel like my jaw gets tired after a bit, its hard to explain. When i’m not thinking about it then I usually dont get this feeling, but sometimes it comes even when im not thinking about it. Specifically when I’m eating sandwiches or burgers. 

It’s weird cuz it feels like it comes and goes. It started after I first learned about als about 4 weeks ago and its scaring me. It feels like I can’t speak or swallow either. I dont want to die.
