This disease is not like many cancers, where the sooner it's diagnosed the better the chances are of it being cured. What I'm getting at is, why are you so desperate for a diagnosis of this disease when there would be nothing you could do for it? What difference would having this diagnosis make? It's not as though you would get any treatment as such, other than palliative care. Live your life for today (and today you do not have ALS).
