Thanks for reading this... I am just so beside myself, and it seems you all understand.
I was wondering if anyone had any info on the onset of ALS due to an electrical shock.
My dad was electricuted at work in 2000, and ever since he has had symptoms that mimic ALS.
They have progressed rapidly over the past 2 years. He is now almost completly immobile except for his head, and speach.
The doctors told him it was ALS but now they just tell us that it is "Degenerative Muscle Atrophy" which is just describing his symptoms i think.
he thinks his symptoms are from his shock. It wasnt bad enough to cause any damage on the outside of his body. But he thinks that it had a great effect on his nerves to mimic this disease.
He has tried everything including going to Mexico for Stem cell injections, and Hyberberic Chambers to get rid of the "toxins" they said he had.
The doctors are not very helpful. I thought I would see if any of you had any ideas or where else to turn.
Thanks again
