"... if I had come here and not posted to the DIHALS forum and instead posted that same question, would you have moved it to this forum?...Is it not acceptable to ask legitimate questions?... Is there a reason that you ask this?
We have to prioritize, and general educational discussion is a secondary priority. We have to maintain some rules in support of our first priority, the PALS and CALS. I personally would really enjoy chatting about the issues you bring up, but there is a slippery slope--the forum could quickly become a general hangout for those who don't have ALS.
Rob, during the past few days, several of us have spent hours dealing with one member who appears not to have ALS and states he does not think he has ALS. This time took away from supporting several other people who do in fact have a debilitating terminal disease. It has also upset a couple of observers.
You're obviously very bright and curious. I suspect that satisfactory answers to your inquiries would require expertise and time that are not available here. I look forward to reading reports from your next doctor's visits. --Mike
