Meeting the Challenge: Improving Diagnosis of ALS

Thanks

You mentioned that some people are diagnosed with cervical or lumbar stenosis, or carpal tunnel syndrome. Did those people have scans that show those conditions but it is not contributing to their symptoms since it is ALS? Or are these doctors assuming that’s what they have and didn’t run any tests? I have all three of those problems along with fibromyalgia, but it is getting harder to walk.

Is cervical sponlitic Myelopathy the same as ALS?

Very different with the same symptoms.
