UPDATE: I got my lab results back that the neurologist ordered. My metabolic was perfect, except I had slightly low CO2 and fairly high ALT levels -- the ALT not being too much of a surprise. However, my ACE level was slightly high and I was told that might indicate sarcoidosis -- which is...

Thanks Karen -- I'll make sure to do that. I did forget to mention in my previous post, and this one, that my mom was diagnosed with fibromyalgia -- I'll bring that up too. I should have an update by Friday afternoon! Best, Charles

Thanks for the quick responses, Kim and Laurie. I appreciate the thoughtful responses -- when I saw the neuro about two months ago, she suggested that I let the vitamin D regimen take its course and see if it got better (which it hasn't but could mean I just need a longer treatment of vitamin...

I actually started eating "right" about two months ago, and have been avoiding junk food. I appreciate the advice though.

Hi! I honestly was very hesitant about making an account on here to just to post to this forum. I was diagnosed with generalized anxiety disorder, and I am well aware that what I am experiencing could certainly just be because of that. However, over the last few days, the thought of ALS or any...
