A member asked:
Can you tell me of a spinal cord disorder or disease that may cause death before the age of 30?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Are you worried?: ALS is the disease I think of first. Are you concerned that you have one? There is no background information in your post whatsoever, so under the circumstances I can't think of anything to add.
