Hi. New here. Thanks for taking the time to answer my questions. Here are my symptoms:
1. Post nasal drip. Throat clearing. I read the stickies but have also read a lot of post where this was something people with bulbar als experiences.
2. Difficult breathing. Seems like I can not get enough air in. I way 5 lbs more than normal, but not overweight. Last oxygen test on finger shows 98% (normal range). Less focus on breathing seems like it is less a problem.
3. No slurred speech. Tongue seems heavy, but no noticeable issues.
4. Body wide twitching which I know is better than localized. Some cramping.
Questions:
1. Is post nasal drip and clearing throat an early symptom?
2. Should I be worried about ALS?
Thanks,
Jallen
