I have my first ALS Clinic visit on Thursday. Was wondering if any of you might share what to expect? I understand there will be multiple providers that will be "looking" me over. Should I expect my first FVC test and blood tests since I'm taking Riluzole? Will they "stage" me, for lack of a better term, to determine my progression? I'm taking my two sisters and my wife with me. I figured it would be good for my wife to know that others are being educated too. Don't want her to feel like she has to shoulder this by herself. I'm hoping someone will talk to me about SGD's as well as my speech is getting pretty bad.
Thanks in advance for the input.
