How are you doing with regards to ALS?My most recent patient was a doctor who developed that after just one year of practice.I felt so sad for him.He was diagnosed in 2009,and it progressed a lot to where he needs a lot of assist to be able to do anything.I was too sick to care for him because I got chronic venous insufficiency last summer and it's not backing off,a lot of nueropathy,swelling,and ulcerations..I think maybee genetic predisposed and then floor nurse floor nurse for 30 yrs will do it..Regarding the tremors,and benzos,oh yes a very good point on the correlation between the stopping and starting.i began gabapenin 2 wks ago and it's really helping,I did not realize how much nueropathy I actually had.Thankyou for your kindness and insight here,it really has made a difference in my attitude and attitude during this illness.
