I had my appointment today with a neuromuscular neurologist with the UCSF ALS clinic for my second opinion. I don't know what I was expecting, but subconsciously I think I was hoping she was going to tell me I had something else completely that my other neurologist missed. Unfortunately, she not only confirmed that she believes it is MND, but that she also can't say it's not ALS at this point, since I've started to develop some LMN symptoms since my other neurologist diagnosed me with PLS. I'm pretty bummed. I have an appointment for an EMG next month to *hopefully* rule out ALS. For now, she's getting physical therapy and occupational therapy going and we'll just have to take it from there.
