    Drugs and PT for PBP?

    I was diagnosed with PBP a year ago this week. I frequently check in and read most of the posts for the day. It just dawned on my husband and I that none of the four neurologists I have seen have mentioned physical therapy or drugs that might delay the progression of this beast. Until about...

    Very worried. Please help.

    I apologize if this has posted twice, I couldn’t tell if it did the first time. For the past two months I have been experiencing some very concerning symptoms, and so naturally I went online and it said it could be ALS. It started out with very bad cramping in my whole body (with occasional...

    It's been 3 years

    This month marks 3 years since my husband was diagnosed. He is still progressing very slowly, for which I am thankful. His left hand is completely gone, his left arm is weak, and he tells me his right grip is getting weaker. He can still walk, talk, and eat. My caregiving role is currently...

    PLS and Weight Training

    Does weight training help with PLS? It seems to keep me strong and I have had very little weakness with my PLS. The only negative is that it makes my stiff legs even more stiff. This is because I have the stiffness from the exercise on top of the PLS stiffness. I hope to hear form TxRR...
