Advice & Tips
After 5 months of taking Nudexta my ability to swallow has hardly declined at all. My speech, however, has continued to decline and is now all but gone.

Advice & Tips
Nudexta has seemed to almost completely 'cure' my emotional lability issues. My swallowing improvements remain so far.

Advice & Tips
I am feeling pretty good about Nudexta. Today is the second day is a row that the paper towel I use when I drink my morning coffee was relatively 'dry'. Usually it is sopping wet with coffee by the time I finish the cup, mostly because I gag a few times and lose a whole mouthful of coffee. Today I drank it without gaging once. It seemed as thought it took me about half the time to drink it also but I have not been timing myself.

Advice & Tips
I participated in a clinical drug trial at the ALS clinic at UCSF. The purpose of the study was to help with uncontrollable laughter and crying. Of the 3 blind trial dosages available (Full strength, half strength, and placebo), I conjectured that I received the half strength pill. With the trial over now, I have chosen to continue with the study on an open label basis, which guarantees that I receive the full strength dose. My laughing/crying symptoms have markedly decreased in the second phase (with the real drug).
