    Louis Savarese replied to the topic Relyvrio in the forum Diagnosis​ ​Information​ ​and​ ​General​ ​Questions 1 day ago

    Hi Bevin,

    Thanks for sharing the info about you and your partner’s journey thus far.  I also see Dr Bedlack and drive down every three months from NJ to see him.  I’ve been on L-Serine (BTW Jo-Mar Labs offers a discount to ALS patients) for about 5 months now but not N-Acetyl L carnitine.  I will bring it up next month at my visit.  I was dia…[Read more]

    Thanks Susan,

    God Bless you and your loving husband.  I’m on the list but only one email from the Amylyx team telling me I’m in the cue.  I’ve been taking Tudca so I think I should be ok with the bitterness.  BTW I’m lucky too in that my Faith is strong and my wife is my blessing.

    Louis Savarese replied to the topic Peptides in the forum Research Topics 4 months ago

    Hi Lisa,

    I too was very interested in Clenbuterol, so much so that I flew to North Carolina from NJ to see Dr. Richard Bedlack.  I spoke to him about the Italian study and his own small study.  He advised me that I might very well be better trying try the amino acid L-Serine (which I purchase through JoMar Labs 831-728-8010).  It is currently un…[Read more]

    Louis Savarese replied to the topic What is Your Self-Care Plan? in the forum Living With ALS 5 months, 1 week ago

    Hello All,

    My Plan is relying on faith.  When newly diagnosed, I felt like a hypocrite in that I was always spiritual but my faith was on the back burner.  I always knew the importance of every minute having lost my mother when she was just 35. Now that I have been on this journey for two years diagnosed and probably a year before, I have i…[Read more]

    Louis Savarese replied to the topic 1st EMG in the forum Diagnosis​ ​Information​ ​and​ ​General​ ​Questions 9 months ago

    Hi Andy,

    The tests aren’t bad at all.  I’ve had three EMG’s with no issues. My diagnosis was confirmed in Sept of 2020 by a one hour MRI at Cornell.  At that time the MRI showed possible UMN disease. (Bulbar Palsy)

    I did have symptoms in terms of speech since Dec of 2019 and I went through many specialists in different fields before my d…[Read more]

    Louis Savarese replied to the topic CLENBUTEROL in the forum Research Topics 10 months, 4 weeks ago

    Hi Dave and all others on this thread,

    I have scheduled my first appointment with Dr. Bedlack in the end of July.  The YouTube was very convincing since the results in the Italian study and his both had positive results. I find him compelling and compassionate which is so important.  No one wants to feel like a data point.  I also receive gr…[Read more]

    Louis Savarese replied to the topic Young man with suspected bulbar ALS – what on earth should I do now? in the forum Diagnosis​ ​Information​ ​and​ ​General​ ​Questions 11 months, 3 weeks ago

    Hi Will,

    So sorry you are going through this. I started experiencing my symptoms which manifested with difficulty annunciating certain words back in Dec. of 2019.  After a year of testing with different specialists I was diagnosed with Pseudo-Bulbar Palsy which became evident after a one hour MRI.  Fast forward to today my speech has worsened a…[Read more]

    Louis Savarese replied to the topic Why is ALS so difficult to diagnosis? in the forum Diagnosis​ ​Information​ ​and​ ​General​ ​Questions 1 year, 3 months ago

    I was diagnosed with Pseudobulbar Palsy in Sept of 2020 through a one hour MRI at NYU Cornell . I had a series of blood tests to rule out Myasthenia Gravis and other ailments.
    I had experienced symptoms in Dec of 2019 with difficulty articulating certain words. At that time I was prescribed an aerosol steroid to swallow for treatment of…[Read more]
