Thank you. He is going to Johns Hopkins to see a specialist for his tremors ( he has always had them, they have just gotten worse as his walking problems arose). Thanks for the advice.

Hi! I'm a 20yo male.
I've been suffering from difficulty breathing (more of, I don't feel as relieved when I take a breath in as I should be) and occasional chest pain for several years.
Earlier this year, the symptoms got worse so I decided to get myself checked up.
I did blood test, urinal...
My wife and I are both over 65 and take SS. We also care for her mother, 95 and Parkinsons, and lives with us. My wife has developed seizures in the last two months and is not well, pretty much confined to the house as these seizures render her unresponsive for as much as 3 hours. I am still...
I need any insight I can get my dads symptoms started in may 2012 with weakness in his right hand now he is a complete paraplegic but his breathing is totally normal and he swallows with no issues. Back in 2012 my dad had a cancerous tumor removed from his vocal cord, the cancer scare made my...
I have a strong familial link on my mothers side to ALS/MND where several people have passed away from the disease.
My Aunt(mothers sister) has recently passed away from Parkinsons (apparently)
However,I suspect that this was a misdiagnosis as the disease from start to finish only lasted 2 years...
Azilect is a drug approved for Parkinsons. It is an MAOI-B, meaning inspite of the FDA warning there are no dietary restrictions or medication interactions to worry about -- One only has to be concerned if on an MAOI-A such as Parnate. It is currently in a trial for ALS. I discovered that...
I am 28 years old. No family history of ALS but there is a lot of random neurological problems in my family from: my grandfather having parkinsons, my mother suffering from chronic muscle cramping and my aunt who has myclonic tourettes. It’s been about 7 months since my first sign of weakness...

I have been on this forum for around 2 years, have had symptoms of MND for three now. I have read all the stickies and I'm not the typical hypochondriac with a few twitches that googled my way here.
What I have finally figured out after three years, 10 neurologists and probably more than 25...
Hello all,
My name is Joe. Firstly, I would like to say that my heart and all of my love goes out to you all. The strength that it takes to be apart of any disease, especially this one, is beyond all measure!
Hmm I don't really know where to begin. I suppose I will start from the top of my...
