neck pain

I've been reading a lot of post, and I was wondering how does one know how long one has with ALS. The million dollar question, I'm sure! My Hubby was diagnosed last month, though they think he has had it for 2 years, already! He has severe breathing issues, he can't walk as far as 40 ft...

Hello, I posted some questions a while back but I continue having issues and I am still concerned. I have been seeing Dr Katzin out of USF, up to now she has completed 2 EMG's each time on only 2 limbs leg and arm. They have been no indications of MND plus on my clinical I have always shown 3+...

Hello everyone, I know this might be irrational and many of my friends and family has dismissed me as being scared and being psycho for nothing but i have health anxiety issues and recnetly ive latched onto ALS. After riding a quad bike recently ive started to have neck pain and muscle...

Hey everyone. I've visited this forum many times over the past year due to some health issues I've had, and I thought I'd finally post to get your thoughts on a) my specific issues/symptoms, and b) how to process in general the discrepancies between the ALS onset "common knowledge" vs specific...

Hello All, First off, I would like to thank those on the forums who consistently take time out of their day to help worrisome people like me and analyze each individual case with such care. As for me, I am a 22 year old male and my episode started about six months ago in June while I was under...

Hello All. I honestly can't believe I'm posting here again. I would have posted in my old thread, but it's closed now. I had an EMG/NCV on all my limbs, and have been cleared of ALS. BUT! My face, and tongue were not tested, and I now fear Bulbar ALS. Here are my symptoms: I feel like I am...

Hello.. I have a quick question about neck pain, as it relates to ALS. Is neck pain/fatigued considered a symptom of bulbar ALS? At what point in ALS stage, does the neck become affected? Do you just wake up oneway, and you aren't able to move your neck, or is it gradual, and what are the...

Hi All, I really appreciate all your time and comments. I have mentioned my symptoms below, please forgive my English, as I am not good at it. I am 31 yr old male. 1. Upper back pain and neck pain started around June 2015 with numbness in right hand little finger and right leg little finger...

For the last couple of weeks I've had really bad lower back and neck pain. Before I got my diagnosis, my Mri showed multiple disc bulges and some stenosis. Would I be correct in assuming that this is probably due to muscle wasting in the back and neck and therefore allowing the discs to maybe...

I am a 64 yo female in generally excellent health. A little over a year ago, I noticed that my balance was not great and I tended to lean/walk to the right at times. My husband and I joked that we were getting older and had terrible balance. Early last fall, I began to have what I called...
