Hello , I'm new here so forgive me if I'm doing anything wrong .
I came across this forum when I googled for ALS MND forums , and you
seem a friendly bunch .
I was diagnosed in March 2009 after having swallow and speech problems since January 2009 . I have weakness in my limbs also . I am drooling a lot too .
I'm on Riluzole and pyridostigmine . I have all but lost my speech and use a Lightwriter .
I have been asked to seriously think about having a PEG put in . This scares me . I
don't think I have it put in under local , I want to be asleep . :-(
