I'm new to this forum and as you can imagine don't want to be here.
I may be one of those Internet type doctors (not a md) who researches and researches then erroneously convinces myself it's ALS. I really hope so.
I'm here researching for my wife, who is unaware that her condition may be ALS. She has developed a slurred/tight speech over the last 9 to 10 months. No other symtoms. She has had 3 negative MRI's, has seen a Throat ear and nose doctor (all negative ) and a neurologist. The neurologist has said "it may not be neurological but wants more testing. MG, Lupus, Lymes and thyroiad have been eliminated. She has celiac disease and is on a gluten free diet. She had extensive dental work years ago and our new dentist has indicated the teeth may affect her speech but how much she can't say. I have researched Celiac Ataxi but get a sense it's nonsense. (comments welcome)
I'm a complete wreck, looking for answers, advice or just comments. Definitely looking for prays.
