    Need honest opinions--or tough love!

    I am in need of honest opinions-and maybe a little tough love. First: I have so much respect for the folks battling this disease while also being willing to support and advise others. My gratitude goes out to you. Second: I read the sticky, and I realize I likely don't belong on this forum...

    19 y/o male - are these symptoms consistent with bulabr ALS?

    I'm a 19 year old male worried about bulbar ALS, to the point where I can't enjoy my life anymore. I've been to my primary doctor about it but not a neurologist yet. He didn't seem to be worried about it. I've had an MRI and that was normal. I've been having sleep apnea for almost a year and...

    In the process of testing
