    Laurel Linton replied to the topic Genetics, How Does this Knowledge Change Things for You? in the forum Research Topics 8 months, 1 week ago

    I found out I have the C9 gene mutation and it was devastating to learn I have it. It’s slow progressing so far but since my first symptom almost two years ago to my diagnosis Nov 2021 I have gotten very tired. I take each beautiful day I’m able to with thankfulness to God. But I’m tired. God bless all those that are fighting this devastating diagnosis.

      Laurel,

      It might be good news that you found out that you the C9 mutation. There are some clinical studies and trials that are targeting specific gene mutations. Have you checked into those? Is that something you have discussed with your medical team? Keep enjoying each day that you are given! I will keep you in my prayers.

    Lisa,

    Good morning, I just saw your link about the C9 Gene and I was diagnosed November 2021 with ALS and also with the C9 gene. Is there a way to join the study now or is it to late.

    Thanks for any help you can share with any of us.

    Take Care,

    Laurel Linton
