Hi, my family member recently got ALS, I wanted to know how is it related to Lyme disease. Does Lyme disease cause ALS? What is the difference between symptoms of ALS and Lyme disease?

Lyme disease can not be cause of classical ALS. ALS is a nerve disorder and infections can not lead to both upper and lower motor neuron symptoms as well as paralysis that characterize ALS. Concerning symptoms of these two diseases, they are not alike. But, some isolated cases are reported of people with Lyme disease who had unusual symptoms of Lyme disease, and with some symptoms and signs of ALS. People with a diagnosis of classical ALS should not undergo Lyme disease testing, because these two conditions are not related. However, if a person has been exposed to Lyme disease organism, or has sensory symptoms, Lyme disease testing could be considered.

I was diagnosed with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) four years ago. For over two years, I relied on various prescribed treatments, but unfortunately, the symptoms continued to progress. The muscle weakness became more noticeable, and my coordination and mobility started to decline more quickly than I expected.Last year, feeling desperate for anything that might help, I decided to try a herbal treatment program from NaturePath Herbal Clinic. I was skeptical at first, but after a few months, I felt some changes my movements seemed a bit smoother, the stiffness less overwhelming, and I felt a little steadier on my feet. I also experienced moments where my energy and confidence felt improved compared to before.This experience has been meaningful for me personally, though I know ALS affects everyone differently and treatments that feel helpful to one person may not work for another. If you or someone you care about is living with ALS and looking into complementary or alternative approaches, you can explore their information at www.naturepathherbalclinic.com or contact them at info@naturepathherbalclinic.com
