Short Bio | I was diagnosed with ALS 04/10/2025 and started having weakness in my left hand 2 years prior to the diagnosis. I was an Emergency Room RN for 30 years and was struggling to take off the syringe caps. I was misdiagnosed with carpal tunnel syndrome. I then found and beat breast cancer. My doctors did multiple EMGs and were perplexed about what was happening. I had difficulty swallowing and speaking for over a year before any of my doctors picked up on it. |
