Hello, First of all thank you who will read my story. It is hard time for me now and i thought over of other possibilities, that could affect my health, but only bulbar ALS pops up in my mind. Everything started on march. I had a flu type virus for about two weeks and my left face side was...

Hello all. I've had a few of what I believe could be ALS-like symptoms. I was wondering what others might think. I've had muscle twitches for what I believe to be 4 months now. It started off in just my arms and calves, but after a while they seemed to spread to other parts of my body, such as...

The first thing I want to say is thank you for having a place like this, where people can go to voice their concerns. For that past 3 months, I've had disequilibrium. If you don't know me, you can't tell, but I feel off balance when I walk. It becomes especially pronounced if I stand with my...

Hi everyone. I have read through so many threads before joining and I think this board is a wealth of knowledge and a breath of fresh air from all of the scary stuff on google. I’d love it if you could offer advice on my symptoms, which seem a bit quirky to me. Any feedback is greatly...

Hi guys, I’m really new to this thread and have read all the information before posting this. I’m really scared at the moment. A few days ago I noticed a sudden weakness in my left leg. This wasn’t gradual and as I say, very sudden. I can still walk properly, walk on my tip toes and I don’t...
