Even though I can still walk, I can't walk far. I went to a medical supply store to find a rollator. We now only have one store in town and they have quite a markup plus very limited choices. I'm looking for: 1. Extremely light weight and easy to fold 2. back support and seat 3. place to...

So I'm not going to pretend I know alot about Als. I know it's something I'm scared of, something I dont want to have. However I have been experiencing nerve problems. Notably pain in both my arms, wrists and hands. Now I know it could be a lot of things, arthritis and carpul tunnel. I...

Hi. Please bear with me here. I am 39, male. Weight trained very seriously since 16 and in the summer weighed about 250lb. I have always been in perfect health until this year. Back in August I started getting muscle twitches randomly across my body and pretty bad fatigue, along with tight...

Hello, I was not sure whether to make a new post or to post on a previous one on teens, but I think that living away changes the experience quite a lot so I figured it would be helpful to open a new thread. As some of you know, my father was diagnosed with PLS. I am from Spain, where he still...

Hi all, I'm a 33 yo female and have been fearing ALS for about 10 months now, since I started twitching all over my body. 8 months ago I had an EMG in my right arm and leg, came back normal. 6 months ago I felt like I was having difficulty speaking so I went to my neurologist and he cleared me...

Hi everyone, so I saw the Neuro and he performed the emg and physical on me. Physical was normal and he said my emg was normal. Ncv found wrist and ulnar damage, elbow damage specifically. Just said don't lean on your elbow as much. He didn't bother to do my legs or back not sure why? And...
