Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease and motor neuron disease. It is a slowly progressive neurodegenerative disease producing weakness of the muscles. Almost any part of the body can be affected, including the muscles of the arms, legs, speech, swallowing or breathing. The ALS Clinic at Texas Neurology is sponsored by the Muscular Dystrophy Association (MDA). This clinic typically occurs one Friday each month. The purpose of the clinic is to allow ALS patients and caregivers to get help at one convenient location, rather than make the needed multiple visits to numerous health care providers. (
