    Janice replied to the topic I NO LONGER SWALLOW in the forum Living With ALS 6 months, 2 weeks ago

    I TAKE A FEW PROTEIN POWDERS AND I SEARCH THEM TO BE NO SUGAR AND GLUTEN.  I USE PRODUCTS FROM AMAZON. I JUST PURCHASED A CANNISTER OF MACROLIFE – MACRO MEAL A SUPERFOOD.  WHEN I TAKE THIS IN THE MORNING I DON’T USUALLY FEEL SLEEPY IN THE AFTERNOONS.

    I’LL START THIS EVENING AND POST MY EFFORTS.

    I FIND THAT I ONLY USE THE FOOD TUBE. WHEN I EAT BY MOUTH I FIND THAT I DEAL WITH EXCESS SALIVA AND I COUGH. I TAKE GLYCOPYRRALATE FOR EXCESS SALIVA AND THAT HELPS. I TAKE MANY SUPPLEMENTS AND POWDERS AND THAT MAKES ME FEEL BETTER. I USE WATER BEFORE AND AFTER TAKING BY FOOD TUBE.

    Hello all – I will get stem cells this year.  They really worked well last year.  They took the pain away.  I’m glad I moved to NC 2 years ago with my eldest son, Mike.  Jan West

    Thank you for this forum. I realize now how many people have ALS. I never would expect these symptoms but in my body they are now swelling muscles. I can still walk and do my chores but wonder how much longer can I exist.
