Hi my name is Michael, I think that all of you, especially the ones fighting ALS are remarkably strong people i am in awe of you... my father has als for past two years and is stable we have a great relationship... Im 25 m, and think ive been having symptoms of Pals, I have a little bit of excess saliva, when i read sentences aloud i have to stop after every other sentence and there is a pretty loud audible gasp for air... when I jog outside I spit aLoT of saliva up, and dont have alot of stamina like i used to a few months back.. also during the babinski s test my mom administered shes a PA my big toe did not go up kinda goes down but my other toes twitch a little bit some times up, sometimes to the side, Ive been under alot of stress lately and sometimes my toes on my left foot will start twitching and my legs as well, also my let rib cage sticks out more than my right, and my right stomachmuscles when flexed are strong and tight and my left side of stomach not as firm, I have a history of head trauma, bad falls, injuring of the back, because of sports and drunken foolish escapades.... so am pretty worried,, I see people like AL respond all of the time, you are the man by the way i pray for you and cindy, carol and everyoneone ALOT, i feel silly posting this almost selfish but would appreciate any feedback, thank all of you so much from bottom of my heart, hope to hear back, ty alot
