Do/can I have ALS
by TomDavies, Oct 23, 2009 02:36PM
I am very concerned that I may have ALS after watching Stephen Hawking on TV and then looking up his disease on wikipedia.
I have some of the symptons described by wiki - My hands are always shaky, and I often get cramps and stiffness. I also notice sometimes that i experience awkwardness when walking and my speech is a little different to everyone elses.
I am also slightly clumsy, but I have always been that way.
But its not always ive felt awkward when walking, i usually put it down to rough surfaces and walking uphills. Also my voice has pretty much always been a bit weird since my voice broke a few years ago.
That's it so far. Im 16 by the way, 17 in January next year.
Do I have ALS? Could I have ALS?
Thanks so much.
