Hello Eytch,

Welcome to the NeuroTalk Support Groups.

I'm sorry to read that you have injured yourself falling.

I wondered if you have any other sensations when you fall. Do you have any dizziness at all beforehand or do you feel faint at all?

Do you have any ear problems?

Have you had any blood tests recently to test if you're anaemic?

Is your BP fine?

Are you currently taking any medications or have you been on any medications recently and they've been ceased. I know that some medications like Paxil can cause electric shocks (or zaps as they're commonly called) when withdrawing. Maybe not related but just thought I'd ask.

Sorry for all the questions, but they're just things to consider before you worry yourself sick that you might have ALS.

I hope you get some answers when you see your Neuro on the 15th. It's difficult waiting and worrying but at least that is not too far away.

take care.
