Hello everyone, today is a sad day. I am at the Mayo clinic for a second look opinion on my diagnosis of ALS. Well my family and I met with the nerologist (no names for protection) told him my story of starting symptoms on 9/25/06 till now being wheelchair bound. I also told him of my recient breathing problems but thought they were pollen, anxiety, and maybe a little ALS but the past two nights I coulded sleep because of the breathing issues. After his physical exam and everthing, he told me I was at the end of this disease and have 6 months left to live. I was shocked 6 months into my ALS symptoms and he said I had 6 months left to live................ I thought he was going to say that I needed a bypap, but 6 months to live. I am 34 years old and freaked. My breathing is bad, but 6 months left to live. I hope he is wrong.
