I went to my first ALS Clinic at Emory in Atl. yesterday. Iwas diagnosed at Emory with PLS in 2006 by Dr. Hopkins. I was walking with out assistance then. I went to using a cane,rolling walker and now am in a wheelchair. Dr. Glass said it was very unusual for legs to be at this severity without symptoms in arms or bulbar. Dr. Bragg,the other neuro said he thought my reflexes in upper body were hyper but Dr. Glass said they were brisk. He did say that we are dealing with a rare disease and you never know. Do any of you have sever problems with your legs and not in other regions? Thanks Billy
