Patient Stories

I joined PatientsLikeMe yesterday…answered all the questions and will be able to track my progression, print off this and questions to my ALS doctors and compare what other treatments that work for other PALS. I also learned a lot...I know there is no cure at this moment but your site sure brings hope to me.
