Hi,
First, all my love to those with ALS and their caregivers. I’ve witnessed ALS very personally as my mother just passed from it. I know the trials you endure and I’m dedicated to fighting for clinical trials and funding for ALS research.
Having watched my mom, now I’m worried sick about it. I have read the rules of this forum, but I couldn’t seem to find a situation similar to mine as I looked through other threads.
My wrist and forearm feel weak. I’ve read that with ALS you simply lose the ability to do things, however it seems like my mom noticed things progressively happening. I have not lost the ability to do anything, but I feel strain and my wrist does shake when I lift my hand (like a waving hi, for example). It just feels weak and almost numb, and I noticed It affected writing a bit.
If you have any thoughts, will you let me know? My mom held a lot of it in to not worry us, so all I saw was the suffering but didn’t get a lot of info on her end.
Thanks sharing you expertise with me.
