Hi everyone,
I will try to make this very quick. I had some functional issues a year and a half ago, together with fasciculation. These were completely unexplained, however they went away. The weakness lasted only few months and progressively improved. EMG showed something in those muscles locally, but no definite ALS. I am here after year and a half stressing again, that it was ALS, as I found an article, which stated that an ALS patient presented with a wrist drop, which actually got better, after two years he developed knee and foot problems which also got better and let him participate even in sports and after another 2 years the typical ALS progression started. So since first wrist drop he had 2 remissions, got better and only after 4-5 years developed typical ALS. Since most of you here know a lot I wonder, is this typical ? Or is it very rare to happen in the beginning, that progression stops or goes away for some time ? Thank you very much I appreciate it.
