    Hi Dagmar,

    I retired a month after my diagnosis.  I was 60, I turn 62 this year.  I was an IT professional for 40 years and I was losing dexterity in my hands my voice was changing.  My wife and my ALS team all recommended that I retire and I was glad I did.

    I try also but I’ve had symptoms for four years and was recently diagnosed with ALS in Oct 2020.  I’ve been excluded from trial I’ve applied to.  It seems the drug companies don’t care about PALS who have this disease for years.  We just have to suffer in silence.

      Daniel,
      I’m sure it is frustrating to apply for trials and not be accepted. Unfortunately, when the companies are in the research phase they have to be able to control, predict and measure as many variables as possible. That leaves many pALS in the position of not being accepted into many trials.

    Hi Dagmar, thank you the welcome. Do you have any ideas on how I can get into drug trials? I was diagnosed October of 2020 and I’ve had symptoms since 2018. I have limb onset, sporadic ALS and my ALSFRS score is 26/27 changes from month to month.

      Hello Daniel,
      A good look at what clinical trials are open, their criteria, enrollment, etc. can be found on this page of the I AM ALS website. At the top of the page is an explanation, scroll down to see all the trials.

    I am unable to get into any drug trials. My ALS score is too low. I’m currently at 26/27 varies from month to month. I’m always excluded because of my score or I’ve had symptoms too long. I got my ALS diagnosis in Oct 2020 and symptoms started in 2018.
