Today I had my remaining crown replaced with a temporary. In two weeks I'll go back for the permanent.
The last thing I wanted to happen was for a cracked crown to break off when I'm not as mobile as now so I had it done.
They had all the info in my chart and there was a new dentist only 28...
I'm a bit lost - finally third neurologist confirmed I have ALS. I am using walker now - wondering if I should go ahead and purchase a used wheel chair on Craig's List. Also - in a great deal of pain at night - horrible cramps - given muscle relaxers - still little help. They tell me ALS is...
My pALS is my mom. She is newly diagnosed with bulbar onset ALS. As of now her mobility is not impacted too much, just her speech, swallowing and breathing.

I have just begun my 7th year post diagnosis and I...

A bit of background information about myself: 27 y/o caucasian female who is in the midst of evaluation by a...
One option given at my first ALS Clinic visit yesterday was Radicava infusion treatments. Comment and/or experience with the process please. If I do these treatments I will not be eligible for a couple of trials they are doing at the ALS Clinic.
Hello to all,
I posted recently in the Newly Diagnosed forum about my mother. Since she was diagnosed in early August, she seems to be progressing quicker than I expected. In 8 weeks she has gone from slight slurring of words and a small limp, to basically unintelligible speech and the need...
Hi all,
This is sort of an update post (last post was in the Newly Diagnosed) but I wanted to move my thread to a maybe more appropriate category.
My husband has gotten a second opinion from the chief neurologist at the University of Münster in Germany, where he is from. He was also able to...
