Hi there,
Short post because i can only type with 1 hand, my left hand is paralysed. My name is Anja and i am in the diagnoses process. 8 months ago i had and still have a dropfoot, since 1 week ago my left hand stopped doing what it's supposed to do. Lost lots of (muscle)weight. Used to be a sports (running, biking, swimming) all in past now. Already had lots of exams focussed on obstructions. EMG's show nerve & muscle weakness in right leg and foot and waiting for emg for hand. No obsytructions found, bye bye "nice"causes, it seems to be more serious :roll:
I have stiff back it hurts lots, hand hurts because of spastic paralysis
It's scary. I will be examined at university hospital soon. Keeping heads up, hoping it will not be ALS. Enjoying present moment as much as possible, am positive minded person. Found this forum and if it is ALS I'm blessed with this supportive place, and will support back.
Fears now i'll lose my other hand too, but do my best to focus on health :roll: :wink:
Enough 4 now,tired, thanks 4 reading!
