Hi Jo, I can imagine how concerned you are that your husband may have ALS, MS or Parkinson's. The prospect is scary regardless of diagnosis.

I'd like to tag some members like @allegro @julesa @bethclardy22 @laurahquayle11 and @hopeful33250 who can share about their experiences ruling out neurological conditions and help with preparing for your husband's upcoming appointment with the neurologist, like what questions to ask.

Jo, you must be anxious to get a diagnosis. Is there any way to get an appointment with neurology sooner than in 6 months? Have you considered getting a second opinion at a large medical facility like Mayo Clinic?
