Hello Ray, I have not heard. Although I’ll admit that this study is not on my personal radar. I do invite you to start a new discussion on this topic in the Forum. Best add it to the “Research Topics.” That way, forum members can type in their thoughts and share experiences if they are in the study.

Rich, I believe your statement would be more on point if written this way: a lot of people have this bacteria which can lead to Lyme disease and they have been misdiagnosed as having ALS.

I am not so sure that there is a definitive “slow” and “fast” version of ALS. Everyone progresses (in different parts of their bodies) at different rates. It all depends on the amount of inflammation and oxidative stress the patient’s body is producing (more contributes to faster decline). I too had a bad limp in my first year…and have speech…[Read more]

Hello, Have you heard any results of the Alspire study, the Ataxin-BioGen lumbar puncture? I was diagnosed April 18. Wondering if patients who received the drug (as opposed to the placebo) are saying anything in forums or Facebook, anywhere?

Hi Ray,
When I was diagnosed my team applied for early access to Toffersen, now QALSody, When I asked if anyone had been in the clinical trials and what they thought and how they felt, I had a participant send me a private message. Everyone in that trial had to sign an agreement not to discuss the trial or treatment with others, and it…[Read more]
