Hello,
I have posted a few times but read and gain more knowledge from all of you each day. My question is if anyone other than my husband Mike begin with problems in the respiratory? He had his second opionon in Dec. of 2007 and when we visited the doctor he agreed that he also thought that it was not ALS. He did a muscle biopsy and after that he agreed that it appeared it was ALS. Now, Mike is totally bipap dependent and the last couple of days his oxygen levels have gone down to 84 for a brief period. I know this is not good. He also had neck surgery in March of 2007 and I thought that it could have paralayzed his diaphram. Supposedly, they had the surgeon look at the MRI and he said it was not. Just looking for answers. Have and good weekend and I will continue to pray for all of you and your families.
God Bless,
