Hi there folks.
I've been lurking around here for about two weeks and decided it's about time to say hello. It is a comfort to see this forum and find others who are facing similar challenges.
My neurologist has concluded that I have EMG readings that are "suggestive of ALS". This is after several years of MRI's, etc trying to get to the bottom of problems I was having. They got worse last Christmas with increasing difficulty keeping my balance and walking. I now use a cane to walk and am losing strength in my legs. My results have been checked by another neurologist who agreed with the conclusions and I am going to see an ALS specialist in three weeks to try and make a conclusive diagnosis for or against it being ALS. So just treading water and waiting at the moment but still trying to read up a much as I can. I'm thankful you are here and open to sharing and caring for one another.
Cheers,
Stephen
