Hi all,
Will appreciate your thoughts.
My mother is 65 and she was diagnosed with ALS around 2 years ago (first symptoms were 2,5 years ago).
This is first known case in the family. Her father died in the age of 80 (heart issues), her mother is now 85 years old.
Recently my mother's younger sister fall ("without reason" she said, but she hurt her head a bit, so might be kind of blackout for her). I know that fallings might be the early ALS symptom (though it wasn't for my mom).
Anyway, is it possible, that it is FALS, if both my mom's parents hadn't symptoms? I don't want to bring anxiety to the family and ask my aunt additional questions about this accident etc. But I'm a bit anxious myself, as you might already suspect.
