Hi all....i want to thank everyone for all the good advice ive gotten here....really sometimes i feel theres no one out there really knowing how devastating this disease is, except you guys...thank heaven for this forum ! i bough my mom the suction machine and it does nothing...its on the most powerful way and nothing happens...anyways its not a fun thing to stick that big stick down her throat either, she starts gagging and that scares the heck out of me, so thats 400.00 bucks down the drain, i have been reading on here about the cough assist machine and i think it will work but i spoke to her pulmonologist and he says no that wouldnt help...go figure, sometimes i think i know more about ALS than the dr's...anyways, even if he doesnt prescribe it to her does anybody know where i can get one (thats not that expensive)...she has had phlem in her throught for like 2 weeks now, and its driving me crazy to see her like this.
