    Going through the process

    Let me reiterate. I have no issues w/PALS (period). What I am saying, I don't understand the issue of muscle weakness. Is it a slow process, or BAM, my foot just dropped.

    I guess my previous post is being audited. I don't know if I posted something I wasn't suppose to. I don't know all of the rules. I'll do a short recap and maybe they will post the original post. I wanted to say thank you to all the people dealing w/ALS and take the time to come to this...

    Thanks Dusty7! I went to the neurologist. I don't have clinical weakness (mental weakness...yes!). The fasciculations have spread all of the place. I am losing weight pretty fast even though I am pushing myself to eat (this could be caused by anxiety, I don't know). I still have pain in my...

    @Couponguy, Did one arm lose size first or did both arms lose size at the same time?

    fasciculations wont stop

    @LinCan, I thought "clean" EMG's were a sign of no ALS? Thanks, Al

    Just a quick question. Again, I see the neurologist tomorrow. Is it possible for the fasciculations to spread from one leg to my whole body w/in a few weeks? Ok, I will give the results of the EEG tomorrow. Thanks again guys! -Al

    @FSHolbrook, That is awesome! I did not grow-up playing soccer. A local parent asked us to let my 4 year old (at the time) play....it has been non-stop from then. I coach my 3 year olds and 5 year olds team....but, I love to watch my nine year old play soccer! She has already accomplished...

    Thank Max! My 9 year old daughter is playing w/a recreational team and practicing w/an academy team. She love soccer! My youngest daughter (6) plays soccer, but is more interested in playing dress-up. My 3 year old is the smallest on the team. He is more interested in tackling players than...

    Thanks Dusty7! Ya'll are all awesome! I don't know what ya'll are going through. Honestly, I hope I don't find out! I wish I could hear your stories (for better or for worse). The Lord be with all of you. I plan on continuing to live life. My 3 year old son has a soccer games at 6pm!

    Thanks Clearwater Al! I will report back the news. All I had done was an EEG and blood work. Most of ya'll say EMG will rule out ALS. Well heck, that is where I would have started. I am not a doctor....so, I will do whatever the doctor tells me to do. I think I am going to see a...

    Going through the process

    I just started the process of determining whether or not I have ALS. It has been real stressful. I have read all of the sticky's. I am just looking for some reassurance from all of you that have had a family member or yourself that has or is going through this process. I have never heard of...
