Hello Mwoolford and welcome to NeuroTalk. Here is the link to our very inactive ALS forum...http://neurotalk.psychcentral.com/forum6.html

You'll find that BoobyB posts volumes of helpful sites. Unfortunately people just seem to lurk there.

I'm so sorry for your husbands dx. :grouphug:

My husbands best friend has ALS. There is a good forum for ALS...

Thanks everyone
 

The words of encourgement are sure helpful. We are going to see the specialist on Friday not sure what to expect. My husband's symptoms sound all to familiar. Weakness starting in the left arm, slurred speech, difficulty swallowing, muscle atropy. From what I have read this affects everyone a little different. :)

I just wanted to leave you a hug....:grouphug: You're looking at scarey stuff.
