Will it be ALS?

Post a new topicby karthikesan on Sun Jan 06, 2008 11:59 am

My mother aged 46 is suffering from complete tiredness for more than a month. She is unable to stand or sit continuously for more than half an hour. The physician we consulted told that she has ailment with nerves (that they are very weak) and suggested an Apetite Stimulating Tonic, Haloperidol Tablets, tablet Met-Neurobion (Mecobalamin & Alpha Liopic Acid) and Propronalol Tablets. She has been admitting the drugs for more than 15 Days. But there was no development. We are very scary about her condition. I'm scary that whether she has ALS Please do help me.
