Hello, As you can see, it was been a few weeks since I have posted a question (trying to deal with my health aniexty). But I do have one questions. I have been biting the side of my tongue a few times over the past week. I went back to my ENT to check on tongue and he saw nothing. Could this...

Hello Jellis86, Hello Everyone, I am been taking my aneixty medication but am fearing that I might have some symptons of bulbar als disease. I think I have been having trouble speak. For example; when I said vision today some thought I said mission. And my wife on occasion say "what did you...

Hello Jellis86, We spoke last week regarding your bulbar diagnosis. I am fearing that I might have some symptons of this disease. I think I have been having trouble speak (but no one has really noticed yet). when I said vision today some thought I said mission. And my wife on occasion say...

nothing yet, I go back next week for meds. ENT told me he would have seen if anything weird was going on in my throat based on the tube which was put down by nose. Thanks for the feedback that the food thing had nothing to do with the ALS diganosis (much appricated).

Thanks for the information. I just heard that food coming out of the nose was a sympton of bulbar als.... Which made me look past GERD which I have actually been diagnosed with.

makes sense, didn't realize GERD was serious at all...

Hello Jellis86, I am sorry for your diagnosis. I noticed you had mentioned "food coming out nose" I have been expereincing this but no other symptons such as difficultly swallowing, speech, etc. I went to the ENT and he told me GERD (similar to what you said). Should I believe him or seek a...

Hello, I have recently had occosasions were food was coming back out my nose. I want to the ENT and he said I had GERD (put some kind of scope down my nose) - no problems drinking or swallowing food or speech. Does this make sense? Could it be the first sign of Bulbar ALS (I have read this...

Thank you ladies, I am starting my medication today. And yes, it effects works, friends, family, etc. Now I understand the reason on keeping these questions on one thread. You folks are very kind.

Hello everyone, I am trying to keep all my posts on one thread as you had recommended. I went to the GP and he told me the twitches were nothing to be concerned about. I am now thinking my right leg/foot is feally funny (mostly my big toe, but no toe dragging or tripping). I was thinking...

yes, doctor says it is aniexty and to take a zantax. 5 yrs twitching, had other health scaries which I thought were more serious and were not, etc. which equates to health aniexty if there is such a thing.

ok, I am sorry to bother you as well as everyone else on this tread. You will see no further treads from me. Thank you and I apologize again. Joe

hello, i am a 38 year old male and have been having a need to "clear my throat" often. I do not have any slurred speach or problem drink liquids or food. Althutt I do suffer from occasional twitching. Can bulbar start off as something as simple as "throat clearing?" Thank you, Joe

Hello, I am a long time twitch suffered ( on and off 4 years now). Recently, I have been having spells of what I consider to be slight dizziness. That being said, I can still stand on one foot and balance very well. In addition, I can run/jump stairs, etc. Is dizziness a sympton of ALS?

Hi eveyone, I have been feeling like I swallow my own saliva often - no drooling, no diffculty swallowing, no twitching, no muscle weakness... Is it ridicaulous to think this is a a beginning sign of ALS? Is swallowing saliva often a sign at all of ALS (early or late)? I apologize for the...
