Hey everyone,
I haven't posted here in a while. About a year ago, I began to have symptoms that concerned me about ALS. After going through the battery of tests...EMGs, spinal tap, blood tests, Dr. Glass at Emory diagnosed me with Parsonage-Turner Syndrome.
I have atrophy in my dominant hand and twitching primarily in my left arm, but to my knowledge, not much has gotten worse. My left arm is still weak, but i can still use it, but it just gets tired much easier. My hand gets sore occasionally, but no cramping or locking up.
I have a follow-up on Dec. 8 with Dr. Glass and hopefully he will not notice any progression. Just wanted to check-in and thank everyone that helped me along the way.
All the best,
Hunter
