    Stiff Legs

    My father legs becomes very and very stuffed at night, it's so stuffed that he has to wake up. Doctors give him medicine for muscle relaxant but seems that's also not working. Is their anything related to ALS progression or its something different than ALS? Any idea or suggestions? Thanks.

    Question on Riluzole in USA

    I agree with you. Even doctor told me after sometime, when he is at last stage, we will stop with this medicine. Besides as per Wiki, it just prolong 3 months of life thats it. From Malaysia you bring in one or two packs if you travel by bus, usually they dont check as 1000’s peoples travel...

    Question on Riluzole in USA

    That's a problem. I am obviously willing to buy without Insurance but US RX is mandatory. Costco pharmacist suggest even if a GP can write a prescription we are willing to sale you. But I am highly in doubt a GP will write such prescription.
