Years ago we lost a relative to ALS, another incurable disease, commonly
known as Lou Gehrig's disease. Similarly, he presented symptoms, was
misdiagnosed for some time, then the disease progressed far enough and
they ruled out everything else and finally diagnosed it.

Same with my brother-in-law, after ruling out stroke or brain tumor,
they came up with possible ALS or Mystenia Gravis, then suggested Lyme's
disease or West Nile. After the disease progressed to a point, it was
very rapid.

My condolences on your brother-in-law's passing.

If I may ask, what was his age when he died? In which state, if an
American Citizen, did he live?

He was 70 and lived in Texas.
