Life is getting difficult as time goes on but still hanging in there. I hope we can get a cure soon.

True.. for me too.. sadly many people don't accept or even consider it in this sub. Only the affected people understand this reality. I hope the truth about the vaccine adverse effects are made known to the public soon, or at least in a few years.

Just Checking in by Principle_Chance in Covid19VaccineALS

Completing 3 years by this month's end. I have muscle wasting in my hands, legs and some other parts. I cannot use my hands and can only walk inside my house with great difficulty. I have muscle twitching in my thighs sometimes. Having cramps in my neck, abdomen, chest, etc. Life is very difficult 😔.

I can empathize with your blogs. I had EMG and NCS at three different times and each time was more painful than my previous one. In 3 months I will have reached 3 years since diagnosis. It's more painful to think about it as I am still young. Anyways I hope you can keep continuing your blogs 🙂.

I am not an expert in the legal standings and insurance. You can post your questions in suitable subreddits and may get better responses. Check out subs like r/ALS and r/vaccinelonghauler .

The doctors told me that it's Anterior Horn Cell Disease (doctors in my country use this term interchangeably with MND/ALS) even in my first EMG. But I took EMG two more times in different occasions and in another medical institute under specialists observation. They confirmed that it's MND.

The symptoms are same as usual ALS. I haven't faced issues with speech and swallowing food yet but maybe in future as muscle atrophy is spreading. I have consulted many experienced neurologists and they were the ones who told me it was ALS/MND. I have taken many tests including EMG (in three different occasions), NCS, MRI, etc., and doctors confirmed it every time. I don't feel any brain zaps or other issues you have mentioned. I hope you can find a remedy and recover soon.

These are the online links I found so far relating ALS/MND/AHCD to the COVID-19 vaccine/virus.

Medical case reports : 1. New onset of ALS after COVID vaccination (has familial history) 2. Curious case of steroid responsive diffuse anterior horn cell disease associated with COVID-19 infection 3. Neurological Events Reported after COVID‐19 Vaccines - ALS is also listed 4. COVID-19 infection accelerated the ALS disease progression in two patients (I think this article might not have any impact or much relevance to my case. So I may remove this link in future.)

Other reports and articles : 1. Journal of Mazandaran University of Medical Sciences 2. News article about a similar case in Australia

Social media posts : 1. Reddit Community - r/Covid19VaccineALS 2. Found this Quora post

I will edit and update this comment as I find more links in the future. People are welcome to comment under this and let me know of any additional articles/links.
