The Bulbar Onset
Hello,
My husband was diagnoised with the Bulbar onset of ALS. He has all the symptoms. He has trouble swallowing, slurred speech, drooling, and some difficulty breathing, especially when he is laying flat on his back. He has weakness in his hands and some in his arms, he has no weakness in his legs yet, thank god. Anyone else with these symptoms? I heard also, through reading and other people that people with this kind of onset has even shorter life span. I sure hope that their is some kind of mircle medicine before my husband is gone.
