I am so frustrated ...
My husband has been diagonsed with als back in august but has had many symptoms for the past year.Along with trying to deal with the prospect of losing the love of my live,soulmate and father of my kids I am told to be strong and prepare ahead.I am trying but cant seen to make any progress.We are on a waiting list to get into the als clinic(where I need prescriptions and referals to get any equiptment that I may need) I have made daily calls to the neuoligist(who is very kind0 but it seens as if somethting tragic has to happened before my husband gets seen.He has been chockingand i managed to get in with a physical therapist who was totally useless.I want to give my husband the very best care along with maintaining his dignity with this illness.I have been given a manual and have been told take it day by day..I never realized what a crappy medical system we have..wait..wait ..wait...not to mention noody can really tell me wahts next ..except for ..everyone is different....
