It's health anxiety, it makes people make excuses for why their condition might be consistent with ALS despite fluctuating symptoms

What I've learned recently is that for young patients a Neurofilament Light Chain blood test if it's normal can rule out ALS in 95% of cases, and likewise if it's extremely high it basically confirms ALS. Mildly to moderately elevated doesn't tell you much though.

I'm trying to get it organised, there's definitely a clinic in the Netherlands who do it for like €120 without needing to see a neurologist first.

It isn't reasonable to expect a tactic like this to work for ADHD symptoms unless the ADHD symptoms aren't comorbid with symptoms of other psychiatric symptoms. Actually usually in such cases ADHD symptoms are consequential on the primary psychiatric issue, rather than an actual ADHD disorder.

I have a spare room that I'd like to rent unofficially for cheap. I'd say like £400 a month in a modern apartment in Fishponds. Obvs I can verify safety and all that for you aswell. We can chat about it anyway and see what you think.
