ALS, regaining use of limb?


Question:
My bf mom was told she has ALS last summer, she had lost use of her left leg over a year ago, and nothing else has happened.
She is working with a pt and can now barely lift her leg and bend her knee?
I don't think she has ALS, but, she doesn't want to go back through all the testing, etc.

Answers:
als is a degeneration of muscles nerves it does not regress she will not regain use of her leg and unfortunetly will gradually lose all muscle control eventually breathing with als (and some other disorders that affect muscles nerves)you have to be very careful not to overwork the muscles as this will make matters worse
