I think I posted after the neurosurgeon said he suspected ALS (in a letter -- not to my face) His exact wording was something like "highly suspicious for ALS)
And, a year later, I stick around because I've made friends and to help others--and because they still don't know more than "UMN" signs and symptoms.
Now, I think my ultimate diagnosis is going to be PLS sometime down the road--as the only LMN stuff continues to be in my arms,--all UMN in legs. Don't know what lungs are considered--doc didn't EMG the area,, which is just FINE with me.
I'm to the point, I think--treat symptoms and what happens will happen. I spent months being convinced I had ALS. Now, I know I have something, but I don't think ALS will be the ultimate diagnosis.
