She is a 32 y/o female.
Just last October (when she was diagnosed with ALS) her FVC number was at 75%. Went to 57% in Feb. Got back from pulmo this afternoon and it is at 31% now.
Here diaphragm readings were (MIP/MEP) were +15/+25 roughly...
Anything I should be on the watch for at this point...She is running out of breath after a sentence or two.
That metric has heightened my concern.
Thanks,
RB.
