Hello everyone My husband was diagnosed in december 2006 . it has taken approx 2 yrs to get tothis diagnosed. his neuro here in edmonton wants to do a spinal tap just to rule out some types of lymphomas that only show in this fluid has anyone heard of this? His first symtom was a very weak ankle that kept rolling over and doctors said he sprained it!
He told them repeatedly there was no pain so how could it be a sprain. one doctor sent him for physio and she diagnosed nerve damage and referred to neuro. Right now he has weakness and atrophy on right side and slurred speech. i hope that if I am ever diagnosed with
any devastating disease that i will be half as strong as he is. My husband still gets up and goes to work everyday and will until he is unable to get there. We are seeing a naturopath in calgary and she seems to be very good. thanks in advance for the support of this website.
