    Newbie Diagnosis

    I'm new here, so bear with me if I'm repeating what everyone else says in their first post. I have been diagnosed with ALS by a neurologist specializing in neuromuscular disease. She wants me to get some more tests done--an MRI of the lower back, a spinal tap (to identify if it could be MMN)...

    Muscle Twitching and Weakness
