Hi-
I’m new here and was diagnosed 4 months ago. My symptoms started a year earlier! Started with falls then foot drop. Also cramps and fasiculations. It was terrible at first but I’m adjusting now. My ALS clinic is great and the local ALS Association couldn’t be more helpful. I’m on Riluzole and mexiletine also bipap at night. Use a walker and have an AFO. I look forward to to learning from all of the great people here! It’s a journey.
