Plateau?

January 3rd, 2009

Maybe I am “plateau-ing”.  I haven’t fallen in a while and I haven’t changed lately.  This could be good news.

Legs – Still able to walk

Arms/hands – Can work on computer

Voice – Can talk, kinda

Swallowing – Little trouble

Pat ALS

    Absolutely love the picture you posted. Is it one you took?

    Glad you have reached a plateu. Hope it lasts.

    btw do you know it takes a long time for Firefox to find your server? Not sure what IE7 would do as it is slow on everything anyway.

    What good news for a new year. Let’s hope you stay at that plateau for a very long time!

    Hurray for plateus!

    Did they ever test you for Lyme? Just read an article somewhere the other day of someone who was diagnosed with ALS that turned out to be Lyme. They had become wheelchair bound before correctly diagnosed. I suppose you’ve had the full gammut of tests but every time I hear of an ALS misdiagnosis, it gives me a little spark of hope that they made a mistake with you.

    I was never specifically tested for Lymes, but I’ll look into it. But, my symptoms are textbook ALS. :-(
