    Back after 5 years... still worried

    In 2012 fasciculations started. I also have pin and needles and some other little things. Went to the neurologist, he did some tests and diagnosed me with BFS. Slowly my worries disappeared and I went on with my live. I'm 42 years old now and a mum of 4 kids. But... since 2014 I got some...

    lost my sneeze reflex...

    So, I said I wouldn't be back here until there was any news, and unfortunately I'm back sooner then I thought. This week I noticed that I lost the ability to sneeze. The reflex isn't coming. Sometimes the sneeze will build up, but doesn't come, but it also happens that the sneeze doesn't build...

    Questions (again) about swallowing and more

    I have a few questions. When people with ALS get swallowing problems, is that only choking or also the feeling some food is going down slow? And is it the same all the time since it starts, or is it sometimes worse then other times? I ask this, because I have had some choking lately (since the...

    Speaking: the s

    I have been on this forum in 2013 and january 2014. After my first EMG in hands, feet, arms and legs, which was fine, I tried to avoid this forum and go on with my life. The neuro said it was 95% clear it was not ALS, she thought it was BFS but she said she couldn't diagnose that for sure. I...

    Could an EMG miss ALS?

    Finally I had my EMG, last week. I did not get the results yet, but when I left, the neuro said it all looked fine. They tested 8 muscles: my biceps, between my thumb and finger, my upper leg and my shinbone. And that on both sides. While I was lying there, I felt twitching everywhere...

    Pins & Needles

    So I was wondering about the pins and needles feeling... Some (websites) say: you will never have this in MND Others say: it can be a first sign of MND. What is true? Are there any with MND diagnose who did experience pins & needles?
