  • hah.. there is no "treatment". I watch my father get worse daily. I go to his house every day to move his limbs so the joints dont freeze up. "his daily stretches" now I also hellp my mom feed him and dress him...ALS is horrid.

  • @AcidBong Hey Acid, You may already know this but I thought I would share it with you. Please just nevermind if you knew it already but researchers from Feinberg School of Medicine discovered the protein ubiquilin 2 malfunctions in patients with ALS. The next step for them is to find out how recycling pathways are involved with ALS which could bring new ideas into how new treatments could be developed to target this disease. This gave me some hope. I hope it does you too.

  • @Slingblade420 Thank you for your thought and time. Yes, in fact I have read about this also. It sure does give researches the next step into finding a true treatment for future ALS patients. However...my father is just too far gone now and he's just waiting to leave this earth.

  • neurologist r useless ???? they only dx desease with no cures or with very EXPENSIVE and ineffective treatment. als, ms, alzhaimer, huntignton, parkinson, epilepsy, etc etc

  • WHERE IS THE HOPE FOR ALS PATIENTS, WHEN THERE IS STILL NO CURE,

    NO TREATMENT AND NOTHING TO STOP OR AT LEAST SLOW DOWN THE PROGRESSION OF BEING TRAPPED "PARALYSED" IN YOUR OWN BODY !!!

  • nice
