Death by BCFS/BFS?

[ZekesTraveller]

Well, anybody!

 

[MarioMasher]

Of course not. Not sure what part of benign would imply that it has ever killed anyone.Now in terms of stressing over it and the anxiety and fear taking years off your life, well that's another story. But I'm not sure it would be physically possible for somebody to die of BFS.

As far as I know there was one case. He was so freaked out about his ALS fear that he had a heart attack. And I guess there might be some killed in car accidents while checking their tongue for atropy or twitching in the rear view mirror....

You don't die from BFS. Get that out of your head right now.

 

[ZekesTraveller]

Ok, so in my 11 years no one has died of BCFS that was somehow or lead to ALS or MS. So, all of you chill out. Yeah, I know it's easy for me to say it 11 years aftermy symptoms started. Point....You'll be OK!

 

[MarioMasher]

Yeah I actually died about four years ago. Also, boo!

Oh - and when i see the headline, I have to state the following:No one ever die of BFS - its benign in nature. The questions asked should be:Has anyone with ALS been misdiagnosed with BFS? (And THEN died).No one ever reported back on this site, so I guess that its assuring. (But its ofcourse hard to report back when u r dead - except for me and mariomangler, that is, hoho).

If I die I'll make sure my wife posts here to tell you that...

You trust your wife? How sweet and old-fashioned. Trust is a rare thing these days. But again: wifes are not doctors....
