I am from South Africa. My husband was diagnosed in Aug 2006.He was diagnosed by two neurologists.He was given a perscription for Rilutek,and that was it.Was not told to come back again. there are no Als clinics in the country,so he has not seen any Dr since. I read on the forums of people going back for check ups,and further tests. Can you advise me on what tests should be done. From the insert on the Rilutek pkt, We noticed that you should have a liver function test done. This he has done.
I have read on the forum about a product called Thick It that thickens water.I can not find it in SA. As its made of Corn starch , we tried Mazina, but without success. Have you any advice of other products that can be used.
I would like to thank the person on one of the forums, who mentioned taking Purity apple sausce after a meal, to help with phlegm. My husband says it helps a lot.
Thank you to all of you for your imput in this forum, it has helped us a lot.
God bless you all
