Hello I am a 38 year old black female and I am losing my mind worrying about als. I apologize in advance if my post upsets you but I am really losing my mind with this. Back around the end of April I noticed that my arms were not the same size. Mainly my biceps. Leading up to this one day i...

Let me preface this by saying how appreciative of any responses I might get. To those on this site affected by als, you are in my prayers every night. You're determination and unwillingness to quit is an inspiration. We lost a good family friend to als and I have a rudementary understanding of...
