ALS causes by pollution, too?

[m_junkita]

Hi, everyone

I have a question...
2 of my friends have ALS, who lives in Cagliari, Sardinia, Italy.
They grow up together in the same town and they are room mates as well.
One has it since 1 year ago and the other one started to have some pain 4 years ago and recognized as ALS just last week.
Unfortunately they both have same disease and the brother of one of them has a strange disease( nobody knows what the name of the disease is ) since 7 years ago. He has balls of pus and calcium around his neck and, often high fever, pain close to his neck and often heart attack. He is sharing the appartment with them... And he is my boyfriend.
In order to support him financially I live in Holland and am working.

I just feel it is a very unusual situation that everybody is sick in the same house.
It might be something more than bad luck or coinssident.
I don't know so much about Sardinia because I am not italian...but...
Has anybody heard about pollution in Cagliari or Sardinia?
I started to doubt about it because I saw a sentense on web;

"In searching for the cause of ALS, researchers have also studied environmental factors such as exposure to toxic or infectious agents."

From site
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia



If anybody knows something about it or if anybody has heard about people like my friends in Sardinia or Cagliari, please...


Greetings,
