Hi I'm new to these forums, but I have a question that's been burning since my mom died of ALS in 1995.
Is it genetic? I would assume not...since no one else in my family has ever had it, then she got it in 1992. I freak out every time I get a muscle spasm or a nerve that is pinched. No numbness associated, but it still scares me.
What are the odds I could get the disease if my mom died from it?
Thanks.
