Tingling is NOT a sign of ALS. You are fine. Think back to when you started having these symptoms, now tell me if i'm wrong, I bet you my paycheck that it all started when you learned about your...
Hey you. Did you get a chance to read my last post last night?...
Welcome SAHM. This is clearly anxiety. The symptoms you've described? 100% anxiety. We have all had those. May I ask what kind of help are you getting for your anxiety? Are you on meds, therapy? I...
After 3 month and no results? I would definitely go see the Dr. And ask for a different antidepressant. Don't be discouraged, Im sure there is a medication out there that is just right for you....
Hi Emmma Don't feel bad sweetie, no matter how many friends and family I have, when i'm depressed, i'm all alone! This is why I come here, then I feel supported by awesome people. And so will you. As...
Sorry about your friend and what she is going through! Als is all about muscle waist and weakness. And it's progressive, which means once it starts there is no going back. The fact that you are...
Hi sweetie. I'm so sorry you're feeling horrible tonight. I know how hard it is. May I please ask why do you think you have that horrible disease? The symptoms you've mentioned don't fit with ALS. So...

Misty hun In short, yes. Your subconsious can definitely play games with you. It does not mean that what you are feeling is not real or painful. It just means that it is brought on by your stress and...
kitt, thanks for The crash course in CT jargon! It could be overwhelming sometimes. Of course, I forgot to ask the neurologist any questions (i'm sooo scared when I meet her, I forget my own name....
Thanks for the prayers and support MSP. How's your head and balance? You feeling better? Hugs...
Kate, how are you sweetie? Feeling better?...
Anxiety affects your body long term sweetie. When i'm stressed, I tense my muscles (fight or flight response). Now, when my anxiety subsides, I should be OK, right? Wrong! All those muscles now hurt...
Thank you Mindy. And I'm doing the same for you sweetie. One day at at time, is all we can do. I'm just so blessed to have all of you in my life. Hugs...
OMG! I got a call from the hospital today. They booked my CTA for this coming Friday! I'm flabbergasted! I mean, this is Canada people. Things never go this fast....

Good morning Misty. So sorry you are feeling all these symptoms. What did your Dr. Say about all this? Are you on any meds? Therapy? I know how hard it is, but please try to relax a little. Is it...

Hello and welcome. The short answer to your question is yes. Anxiety can cause this and a lot more! I've missed periods, sleep, lost weight and hair by the handful. I've lost the ability to walk ( my...
Unless it's causing you horrible side effects, medication could be a major help! 10 years ago, I was so against it, but ended up taking Effexor. Guess what? It saved my life! The way I see it now?:...
