Jim just told me that he has some fasciculations in his wrist this weekend while I was at work. This is the first upper extremity symptom he has had. He also had a pretty significant choking episode this afternoon - has not had a "serious" one in at least a week (at least that I have witnessed or he remembers). I often wonder what symptoms I am missing - Lord knows he is not the most observant about his own condition. He denied choking until it happened in the neuro's office.
I still think there is part of me that is in denial - like just because it is "ALS Syndrome" and not ALS things may still be ok and the doctors may be way wrong. He is still unaware of the "meaning" behind his diagnosis. Doesn't grasp much do to the dementia.
