Hello,
I am new to here. I've been told that I possibly have ALS. It isn't official yet - but the neuro said it's definitely a possibility. I started showing signs about 16 months ago. I'm seeing a specialist soon - in about 2 months.
Anyway... I did my ALSFRS with her, I've scored a 42 out of 48. Like I said, I first showed signs about 16 months ago. I'm 25 years old. Male.
Is this a good thing? or is this rather normal? she said it was good, but I'm sure people that actually have the disease can give me a better idea.
Seems silly that I'm worrying about ALSFRS when I don't even know if I have it - my neuro seems to think it's a strong possibility - I'm now overcome with sadness and anger - but it's not to say I didn't already know - I knew I had this months ago - now it's becoming more of a reality - scary!
anyway... if anyone can get back, that would be great...
