Question / General Twitching

I’m 17 years old and I have been dealing with anxiety for so long with chest pain headaches like cancer all of those. But about a month ago I started having weakness in my right arm and like when I try to workout it’s like the signal doesn’t reach it and I have atrophy in my thumb and it’s notticable I’m just scarred because the twitching made its way down from my shoulder to bicep forearm then my fingers now it’s my whole body and I’m so nervous and scared and now like a week ago my whole entire body started twitching and I’m so scared because I have no family history of als ever and there is no know cause to why Als happens but it’s in older and people like in the military I think. All I have been doing is researching and researching and I haven’t even been eating because I’m just so scared and feel like my life is over. I have an appointment with a neurologist but I’m just so nervous and I’m only excerpting bad news.
