I have severe OCD so I am absolutely terrified of inheriting ALS. I haven’t slept properly
My half-uncle was diagnosed with ALS this month. He is around 73 years old.
My dad is around 65 and is currently 100% healthy. My father and half-uncle are relatives via their father (my grandfather, who lived until 96 and no ALS). I know my great grandfather died at 54 but all I know is it was described in a paper as a ‘short illness’ in the 1930. I don’t know my uncles history on his mother’s side (she died giving birth)
My mothers side are all completely healthy.
is it possible that this will be fals?
