My Dad (63), I suppose had ALS. he had stiffness on the calves and visible mussel atrophy on the left. The left side of his body is effected and no traces of weakness or atrophy, numbness, loss of strength seen on the right side. He does not have problems swallowing, breathing or talking.
A few days back the heaviness on his leg was completely gone, but he had severe pain on the knee and groin region. Also, he is way better form where he started. He couldn't walk, now movement has improved he gives himself an 8/10.
The muscle loss seen on the base of the thumb is filling up .
What concerns me is the EMG mentions the site mainly to be the anterior horn cell.
I am concerned !!! please help.
