    Ziplock bags

    Sorry, I don't have insight into opening and closing them . . I skipped tricks and gadgets and jumped right to rants and raves! What IDIOT thought it would be a great idea to have all the brand new ziplocks in the box ALREADY SEALED! Ai-yi-yi

    After all the tests....

    I'm back after seeing the best neuromuscular specialist in OK at the M D A/A l s clinic. He did thorough blood tests, mri's w/wo contrast on brain, neck, thoracic area, EMG, etc. He admitted even he is stumped. He can't find anything wrong! But yet I can't walk and am partially paralyzed. He...

    Doesn't matter anymore. Just too done

    I keep trying. We barely exist on my SSDI a d the foodstamps. Barely. The electric is ggoi g to be shut off on the 15th, shrug. They denied the medically needy thing, they said we didn't return the forms. Hello We didn't get the forms. I've trashed my back so bad, I couldn't go with Mel to the...

    I'm an idiot

    Hey All Sorry haven't been around much. Trying to do an editing job so I can get paid. TWO different places sent me checks. I've waited over a MONTH for both. Why haven't I gotten them, you ask? Do I have a thieving mailman? Someone stealing from my box? Oh no, nothing so simple. I'm an...

    Muscle soreness/Weakness? Some Twitching

    First of all I would like to commend and thank all of the people on this forum that give great advice and deal with people like me that are worried about their symptoms. It's baseball season, and all I should be doing is worrying about my Texas Rangers, but can't help but think something is...

    Save my sanity

    This is so ridiculous I'm not even sure how to word this. My husband and another member of MY family have ALS or a variant. Hence, no blood relation. My husband insists he got this disease from raid bee and wasp spray that was sprayed at a couple of outdoor family picnics in the park years ago...

    Diane's Chair

    Can someone please explain to me HOW A WHEELCHAIR FOR DIANE CAN NOT BE APPROVED? Is this something you all think STU might be able to help with? I've never heard anything so absurd in my life. No electric chair for someone with ALS just has to be the TOP IDIOT move the Medicare people have...

    Giving up--I've had it

    Ya know, I keep trying. Really, I have. Roommates: won't move, won't pay--I can't afford to evict them--and it takes EVERY CENT of my SSDI to pay my rent--literally. My doctor is a lousy $30 per month to see--and I haven't been in two months because I can't AFFORD $3.00 to fill a...

    Are you living in a FOG?

    Call 1-800-FOG-CLEAR! Seriously, I'm an idiot! I'm a perfectionist and I'm not doing my job well at all! I'm so scattered, I cannot focus and when faced with an obstacle, I start shaking. WHAT? I went to ship two items to pALS today. One, I had a prepaid label from the ALSGA, the other I...

    Survival means let's disassociate

    Oh, I really hate who I have had to become to survive this. I hate that I will BE the survivor. I hate that the person I thought I married has really never been there. I hate what this is doing to my children. I am glad to have outside help living in to gauge normalcy for us -- as if -- she...
