Hello everyone,
I decided to post here after days of anxiety and depression. I am a 24 year old female. My symptoms started 2 and 1/2 weeks ago when both of my hands cramped. They kept cramping no matter what I did. I then felt sudden weakness. I went to the emergency where they told me to go...
I have shared so much here over the years that I feel that this part of journey should be shared here before anyone or anywhere else.
I hope that this helps a CAL somewhere.
Steve was very anxious last night and today about the mask coming off and his breathing. He was fighting the meds meant...

Anyone else been tested or positive? Curious.
I'm positive and Mayo thought certainly a more rare variant of Stiff Person. However, thus far, have not responded to meds. My MND doc at our university thinks PLS. Mayo admitted this week that maybe MND is what it is afterall. But first we try...
Hello,
My mom is in the end stages of ALS. We had in-home hospice for a week when we decided together to go to the in-patient facility so she could be more comfortable as the meds at home were not doing enough.
We’ve been here almost a week now and she had been more comfortable but now I am...

New friends,
My name is Jessi and my mother in law, Eileen, was just diagnosed with ALS about 3 weeks ago. She is a 2 time breast cancer survivor so they are unsure of whether or not her ALS is related to the radiation she underwent as a part of her cancer treatment or not. She lost total use...
