Tom,
When is your appointment with the als clinic?
I had a couple of reg nuero's tell me it might be but they didn't specialize in that area so I took it with a grain of salt. It is not an easy disease to diagnose and you really did not have every thing ruled out.
you need a spinal tap, mri of brain not just a cat scan, and probably plenty more bloodwork.
As everyone else will tell you on this forum, it's hard not to worry....
But if you do have ALS enjoy every single good day now and don't waste it on worrying because there is really nothing you could do. Trust me I wasted alot of time worrying and I was getting around alot better than I am now and could have been enjoying my life instead of having constant anxiety attacks.
Ask your dr to give you something for anxiety. It will help.
I never even new what anxiety was until I started with my symtoms.
And I still don't believe the specialist that it is not als but the only thing I can do is wait and see.
I am 38 with two small children and it is not easy.
