Dear PLS community,
After 7 years of misdiagnosed diseases, surgeries, tests, and confusion, my mother has finally been diagnosed with PLS. Although it is wildly satisfying to know that her issue has a name, the lack of useful information is extremely frustrating! From what I've read, there are something like 500 confirmed cases of PLS in America, and I am unsure the statistics for Canada. Has anyone managed to find useful information regarding how to proceed? My Mom returned from the doctor with a prescription for an assisted living facility, and the understanding that the disease is degenerative, but not fatal. We have no further information, so anything you are able to contribute would be a great blessing to us.
