Sorry I haven't been on in quite a while, I had so much happen to me at the end of last year that depression has really taken a major grip on me and I'm trying my best to fight it...but it's winning.
I was referred to Vanderbilt University to start attending the ALS Clinics there and today was...
Hi. I have been on here before and have been experiencing symptoms for one year now.24 hour calf fasiculations,and ankle and foot weakness primarily.

Yesterday was a horrible day. I went to my monthly ALS meeting which went well. When we got home, I went right on the ramp on the van by accident and my PWC got stuck between the van and the ramp. I would have gone flying off it if I did not have my seatbelt on. My husband got my manual...
Hi! I'm new here. 40 year old female. I started with right index finger twitching about 3 months ago. I let it go until I googled twitching, and of course ALS comes up. So now I freak out, start having panic attacks and twitching all over my body. Schedule appointment with neurologist. She...

Neurologist I saw in June when my body was swaying like a metronome said he wanted to see me again in 6...
Hello. I posted some time ago about my problems and doubts: https://www.alsforums.com/forum/do-i-have-als-als/32451-me-again-scared-death-time-help.html. Basically, around a year ago EMG didn't show any illness besides few atypical symptoms, neurologist that sent me for an EMG said she's sure...
Now a I know a lot of people don't get prescribed this for PLS. I was early on when I mentioned that sleeping was a problem with soreness in my legs and my mind racing trying to get to sleep. This a story about my past week attempting to taper off of Klonopin.
I was taking three per day, well...
