Hello
I have a follow up appountment at the ALS clinic next month which I am approaching with a bit of dread. I am scheduled for another emg then as well. There are no real options with regards to second opinions here on the Canadian west coast, so I may look south, should I desire a second opinion. Does anyone have any opinion on any clinics in the PNW or Idaho (even Utah?) that may specialize in diagnosis of MND-and know PLS well? Although the ALS specialist here in Vancouver is as knowledgeable as they come, I get the feeling they don't run into PLS that often. A larger centre ("center" in American!) may have more experience with incidences of PLS.
Many thanks
