HI everyone just had a question. My family has had 3 members die of AlS, now my aunt who is 47 has been expeiencing some left leg twitches, muscle loss and some nerve damage. She also is having problems with her right arm. She saw a neurologist here in GR MI, and he has sent her to a Doc at North Western Uiversity in Chicago ILL., Their they told her she does suffer from Drop Foot Disorder, she has to go back on november 21 for further testing and in the meantime they are supposed be getting our family genetics together. we were wondering does anyone know if you can have these ALS symptoms but only have Drop Foot? Also we were reading about Lime disease and wondered if anyone new if this may cause drop foot. We would appreciate any info you can share. Thanks Jen
