I have had Facilitations since April 2021. However had an EMG on 1 August, and was diagnosed with a Motor neuron disease. They won't say it is for sure ALS at this point, to rule out other things.

As of this writing (5 Aug, 2022) both , arms have gotten weaker and smaller, and my hands have gotten smaller and are very weak. Also I have lost the ability to take deep breaths and the automatic breathing that you do when you sleep has been compromised. I recently went about 10 days without very little sleep. However I got a BIAP machine two day ago and it is now helping me to breathe at night.

Update - As of 9 Aug, 2022, I was formally diagnosed with ALS
