Hello to everyone. This is my first post so I hope it's in the right place. I will try to keep it simple.
I have been given a diagnosis of probable ALS by a neurologist speciaizing in neuromuscular. I have dropfoot, muscle cramping, weakness and twitching. He performed an extensive emg that supports diagnosis and I've had mri that ruled out other conditions.
I've been referred to Emory in GA and Vanderbilt in TN. I have appointments at both now 2 days apart.
Should I pick just one? or is 2 days apart too close? I have no idea what to expect and I don't know if being overwhelmed 2 days apart is a good idea, but I think I would like to check out both places.
I appreciate all opinions and any information on what to expect at either clinic.
