Short Bio

I was just diagnosed with ALS last week after 12 months of falls, broken bones, tests, bloodwork, etc.  I am experiencing bilateral foot drop but worse in RT foot.  I was told that my diaphragm and swallow reflex were basically at 100%. I’m still trying to process but was going to and will continue PT and continue to work and get up my stairs everyday.  I do use a cane and am waiting for AFO’s to see if they help.
