I can't help but wonder...

I cant help but wonder if my fathers addiction to pain killers triggered or had any influence on his ALS. He has had ALS for about 2 and a half years now and prior to the onset of his ALS, he was pretty heavily addicted to hydrocodone. Do you think this could have possibly triggered his ALS? I mean I always read about possible "environmental influences" for ALS, but never anything like this. I'm probably just in search for something that's not really there. But thanks for your time anyways guys  <3
