G'day everyone.
So it's coming up to a year now since I've first been on here - you can read my following threads (though I really don't advise this):
Another "Bulbar ALS?" Thread
Ongoing ALS concerns...
I am now a 30-year-old MD currently living in Australia. I know on my last thread I said I...
First, when Eileen was on hospice, I couldn't share all the details of her passing, even now some of it is more than I can talk about on the forum. When the time came, with two pastors, family and friends in the room, I couldn't let a stranger make the final step. So, I turned off the Trilogy...
Hi all
Firstly, you are all incredible and the way you put up with the clinically anxious is astounding.
I have over the last two years had significant health challenges, since developing severe Sepsis, which resulted in kidney and respiratory failure. Since that time I have undoubtedly...
Hi guys,
I am getting increasingly worried regarding my symptoms and i would like some advice. I will keep this thread updated for others consideration regardless of my diagnosis. It may help to convince others they do not have ALS!
So I'm 31 years old and in pretty good shape. I was a gym guy...

Lately I have noticed that there has been a few posts talking about different people noticing or just stating they feel that their progression seems to have sped up.
Here are my thoughts and in the end a question.
About 8 months before I was diagnosed, I was working in the mountains in the...
I'm Janet, my 30 yr old son was diagnosed with ALS in December 2015 and he has had a progressive decline since. He uses a trilogy 24/7, is currently on tube feed and he can still talk. Over Christmas holiday he was in the hospital for pneumonia, He is back home now but he is having really...

I don’t understand why prescription medicine is allowed to be advertised on TV or why anyone would think of trying one of the medicines after listening to the laundry list of warnings of possible side effects. But this is definitely an exception!

I realized, after posting some silly Santa jokes in the “Great short jokes” thread, that there probably should be a new thread for holiday jokes. This can include raunchy Santa jokes. So here’s the thread. Who would like to start?
I hope everyone had a good weekend!
I am taking another leave of absence from the forum. The rest of the mod team will take great care of you as always!

I love you all and will miss you.
Wishing you all a wonderful holiday season!
