    Questions about bulbar onset

    Hi all, Thank you so much for taking time to read my questions. I truly appreciate it. I know ALS looks different in each person but I wanted to ask a few questions about potential early symptoms.

    Anxiety over atypical ALS onset

    Hey everyone. I've visited this forum many times over the past year due to some health issues I've had, and I thought I'd finally post to get your thoughts on a) my specific issues/symptoms, and b) how to process in general the discrepancies between the ALS onset "common knowledge" vs specific...
