Hi,
I am new to the group and I would like to say bless you all.
My husband has genetic als in his family. Here is how it started. His mother sister, his mother, his mother brother
then his sister (at age 55) same as her mother and his older brother just passed away from it this pass August at age 61.
This is very progressive als. My husband just turned 55. He has one brother left that is age 60.
This disease is horrible and I am trying educate myself and get information of early onset symptoms. My husband and I have 2 boys.
I do know what to check for such as choking, twitching and weakness. My husband does not talk about at all but I have express to him how
worried I am.
A couple months ago his sexual dysfunction changed. He has never had problems at all in the past. I have read that als does not affect that but
I have also read that a lady said that was the first thing that happened to her husband before all the other symptoms started popping up.
He has went to the dr and blood work is all ok. The reason I am wanting to see if this has effected anyone else. I know my husband and this just popped out
of no where when he was 54 and going on now for about 4 months.
Has anyone dealt with this?
