A member asked:

Just saw a tv show about a 29 yr old who has als. i am 43f. how much does average person have to worry about getting this disease? normal to worry?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Don't worry. : It's not a common disease and if you have no symptoms you have nothing to worry about. Consider not watching medical programming if you are overly anxious, the stress and possible unnecessary testing it will lead to is not worth it.
