rilutek

Hi to all, after 5 days stay in ALS clinik in Germany, I was finally diagnosed with bulbar onsen ALS with sensory involment... The professor told me that when the people are young there was more evidence of widespread muscle wasting in onset with sensory stuff.... I also have tongue wasting...

Today, Brian went the Emergency Room because the ALS clinic said his massive, room spinning vertigo attacks starting last night might be a stroke. Well, we spent four hours there and no stroke, no heart attack but they seem to think he has inner ear issues. He was referred to an ENT but we are...
