MRI Suggestive of What?

Highlights Only
If you have copper deficiency then it might fit your symptoms. Copper deficiency is known to cause neurological symptoms. We are all with you, crossing fingers that it's benign or a least treatable. Keep us updated !
 
I wish I didn't have to report this but I've been diagnosed with mnd, possible als. It's at the best hospital in the world for this. Thanks for all the support here, I'm moving my story to another forum. Should my situation change I'll be sure to report it.
 
Hey TD, sorry to hear this. I can only imagine what you're going through, and only because when I started with these weird symptoms 9 years ago, before finding this site, I briefly thought that might be my fate (as many of us have). My perspective on life changed, and I looked towards the univeral forces that "shine light through the darkness," so to speak. If an idea is real, and universal, and has any real value, it will help us at our worst times, not just when things are going well. I hope you find those things, and if you can't I'm sure they will find you, because they are real. Sorry you and your family have to deal with this, and wishing you the strength to get through it. Cheers,Bill
 
TDenver, I am very very sorry. I don't really know what to say. I will be thinking of you and your family often and always hoping for the best, and with as much laughter as possible! Hugs from Germany.
 
Thanks All. I am hopeful, my diagnosis is "possible" so I've been given a hope and I'll go on that, no fibrillation's on my EMGs yet and I intend to keep it like that. I have a lot of love around me and faith, I am not sorry for my diagnosis, I am thankful for my life.
 
All the best TDenver... I really hope it all works out.To all the others, this thread was obviously a little confusing and the symptoms didn't really seem to be in line with ALS. I am surprised there isn't more anxious raging considering this thread has 2000 views.At the end of the day, I wouldn't stress. As per usual, this was different from the standard BFS case. (Benign diagnosis, get the fk out of my office) His doctors suspected something was going on and aggressively tested to find out what it might be.Hopefully whatever it is, it isn't MND.
 
Hi GamindsocI don't think there should be any raging anxiety in this part of the forum, on this man's topic. Decorum and respect is what he deserves. TDenver has conducted himself with dignity, and his courage in all this has been outstanding. This man has young children, a wife with ms and is now facing the possibility he himself may be ill. Despite this he talks about laughter and facing things head on etc. I guess most members will feel this is a time to offer him support, not to use his case as a stage to get up and voice our fears. Not here and not now. This is a person that started this thread, as I said a father, a husband, someones son, someone who came here for advice. Someone whose profile didnt quite fit bfs, so I don't think many people would be so shallow or tactless as to use this very thread to debate bfs vs als. TD, my thoughts are with you. There have been a few cases on here that have been as far up the ladder as probable (I.e. one up from possible), and have ended up being fine. I hope this will be your outcome, your story also. I will be thinking about you, and I know if your kids were old enough to realise what you are going through, they would be so proud of their dad for maintaining such a good attitude, proud of your strength.HxPerhaps you could pop in some point in the future if it is of any use to you.
 
TDenver, I am verry sorry for your MND diagnosis and my thoughts are with you. You are an incredibly brave person and I wish you the best.This is not public yet but I will tell - in one month a world-wide platform will be launched to connect people with ALS, hospitals and research centers in order to be always informed about any trials and easily be able to participate and share data with doctors and researches. The project is called Tricals. I am really happy I was present on their presentation because finally this beast is getting the attention it deserves.Good luck, stay strong!Docen
 
can someone please summarize what the main differences were between this case and many others that experience the same symptoms was it just a dirty emg? was there also things spotted on the clincal? i read that there was no weakness but still MND and ***thanks
 
First and foremost my prayers are for TDenver. The main concern is the word possible and that things are suggestive right now. Having said that the other concern is for the newbies that are probably starting to freak out. TD did nothing wrong nor did he try to start a panic fire. He simply needed hope, answers and guidance. Which we will always give. I will not go into to much detail out of respect for TD but read ALL his post carefully. Pay attention and you can see that something stronger then BFs was going on and pay attention to the time frames. I will not expand any further. PM me for more of my take if you want,God be with you TD. I Am a pastor and will be praying you receive awesome news! Stay strong DD

I'll keep checking in and giving updates. Y'all have been super helpful and I know how stressful this whole thing can be, even if it turns out negative. I've been given a diagnosis and I am staying strong, so don't let not having one ruin your life. After all, life itself is terminal, so enjoy every second of it.
 
Veryworried, my friend, i wonder whom you are asking in fact...if you are asking us, we do not know, but if you are asking TDenver, you may PM or email him direclty...
