Evening everyone !i have recently posted in this wall however after much more research (probably too much) I could really do with any advice on your experiences and knowledge.
I will provide you with a list of symtpoms and could you possibly tell me wether to panic or not!
1)affected gait-limp for several months not painful but ankle not quite working properly.
2) spasticity in left ankle and confirmed clonus
3) babinski present in both feet
4)fasciculations present in both arms and chest
5)possible slight weakness in left arm although arm can still be used to pick up small child of 3!
6)brisk reflexes in left hand side which is also side I which clonus and spasticity and lp is present.
To my knowledge no muscle atropy or clinical weakness.no bulbar issues that I am aware of!
Symptoms are def progressing and doctor agrees
According to my research over today and yesterday it is almost certain that als is the most probable I'm seriously hoping not but knowing if I'm in the right place or not would e appreciated!i know very little of neuro problems but figured you guys are the best ones to ask!
Thanks in advance xxx
