Lets see, a little bit about me... I am an art student specializing in Graphic Designs, I have a blue tongue skink as a pet and I love him to death, I like donairs as a...
Hello everyone!
It's been about a year now since my diagnoses. I am very thankful that I no longer feel that I'm on death's doorstep. I came from being in very bad shape, very depressed, frustrated, and just about worthless. I was unable to work and living off of savings while I frantically...

I really try to avoid Mother's day because my first born died on that day.
I had named her "Octavia Augusta". She was born suffering with Ductus Arteriosus Syndrome.
She had 2 surgeries, then died on the following Sunday...that was Mother's Day.
Now, you would think that, since it happened...

So I do dog sports and I can be on my feet for 3 or 4 days in a row, running dogs in agility, showing dogs, walking around... I wear a pedometer and I usually get 20,000 to 25,000 steps per day on these days.
Last weekend was one of those weekends. I had an awesome time, it was a lot of fun...
Initially I was despondent upon being diagnosed with an inexplicable genetic variant of juvenile amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. Being only 18 I assumed there was little if anything to remain living for. This all persisted until I stumbled upon an article regarding chemical neurotoxins and a...

Hi,
I have no formal 'tag' for my condition yet beyond being told that I have UMN death caused by either PLS or HSP.
For the last 6 months or so I have started to suffer from intense pain in my limbs - a 'shin splints' feeling in the lower part of my shin and ankle, and a pain in my upper and...

In response to a post:
Your newest batch of symptoms sound more like fibromyalgia than anything else. ALS isn't going to cause pain in early stages. LOSS OF USE is what usually sends those with ALS to the doctor. They suddenly can't do something--for me, it was I couldn't push the buttons to...
