Good afternoon,
My name is Chris and I am a 29 year old male. For the last 4 months the sides of my tongue have quivered non-stop. The best way to describe it is as if the sides of my tongue move left and right at an incredibly rapid pace while the middle maintains it's placement. I can not...
Hi
6 months ago I got very sick lasted a month. Couldn't breathe hard time swallowing and talking. Lost 9 lbs in a week. Got rubber legs. Basically became wheelchair bound because every time I would walk I couldn't breathe. They put me on a ton of asthma meds which made me worse. Testing heart...
This was on ALSnews this morning and i thought i’d share. My Dad already takes Indian Ginseng and now we’ll go get the velvet bean, assuming the AMX-0035 trial allows it...
Hello all. I've had a few of what I believe could be ALS-like symptoms. I was wondering what others might think.
I've had muscle twitches for what I believe to be 4 months now. It started off in just my arms and calves, but after a while they seemed to spread to other parts of my body, such as...

Not without a fuss, mind you. Mayo found an antibody (glycine receptor antibody) and wanted to try several treatments for limb variant stiff person syndrome.

Just wondering what others do when a limb/body part that you can't move much (or at all) falls asleep. Right now I'm thinking of my hand, which I previously would have opened and closed, wiggled fingers, and shaken out until the pins and needles went away. Right now I can only clumsily, slowly...
