ALS

When everybody tells you that you are being idealistic or impractical, consider the possibility that everybody could be wrong about what is right for you."
- Plato   

            Through some miracle, I got to see the premium ALS specialist in the Northwest, Dr. Kimberly Goslin.  She met with me and did a new exam, an EMG.  Think needles poked in various parts of your body, then electric current is introduced to enhance the experience!  The idea - see how my neurons were transmitting impulses.  Patients with ALS have a weekened neuron system and a test of electrical response may provide data.

                July 28, 2011:  Laura and I are with Dr. Goslin.  She tells me, "Akhil, I am 95% positive you have ALS.  It is very rare but even more rare is someone who has MS and ALS.  But you are an exception."

                There it was again!  I am an exception
