There is no known treatment for the neurodegenerative condition known as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis or ALS. It damages nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord, results in a loss of muscle control and gets worse with time.
A person with ALS might expect to live for three to five years after their diagnosis. Muscle spasms and weakness in the hands, feet, arms or legs are frequent early symptoms of the condition. Trips and falls are two additional early warning signals.
After then, it spreads to other bodily regions eventually making it challenging to breathe, speak and swallow. As a tribute to the Hall of Fame baseball star who was identified with it in 1939, ALS is commonly referred to as Lou Gehrig’s disease.
90% of instances of the disease have no documented genetic or family history of the condition. There are examples of ALS in people as young as their twenties and thirties, but most people who develop ALS are between the ages of 40 and 70, with an average age of 55 at the time of diagnosis.
Even while the incidence becomes more equal as people get older, men are 20% more likely than women to get diagnosed. There were more than 31,000 ALS patients in the US in 2017, although many instances go misdiagnosed. Every year, the condition is officially identified in about 5,000 new cases.
