I have posted a few times. My husband has ALS. We have a good friend who started
losing her speech about a year ago. Went to several neuros and had 2 or 3 emgs.
Difficulty swallowing thin liquids, drooling, slurred speech all the classic symptoms. I told him sounded like bulbar ALS to me. They went to Mayo Clinic and she was diagnosised
with Bulbar Palsey. Is this a wicked step child to als? The symptoms are so similar.
I don't know the difference between the two. Is prognosis the same? No limbs affected yet. I know someone on the forum can explain for me. Thanks
