I am age 67 and began falling , tripping and losing balance upon standing in 2000.
After many many test's and doctor's visits I was diagnosed with PLS.
The progression worsen and now I am in a mobile wheelchair. I can stand and walk with two canes for just a small distance. My speech began to slurr last year and has gradually become worst. Cough and choak easily and it has wosen. Took test and my muscles are not working in throat.
Yesterday I had an "incident" where my eyes had the floaters and wavey lines but became worst, then I was confused and felt faint. Doctor said could not find any thing related to stroke but could be PLS. Has anyone else experienced this?
Would like to hear from others with PLS. Live in Oklahoma City but originally from New Zealand.
