10 ALS Symptoms
Symptom #8: Clumsiness
People are usually coordinated enough to be able to go through life without knocking things over or banging into things most of the time. People might have some moments of clumsiness, though, particularly if that person is sick or tired. For people with ALS, however, clumsiness can become a regular part of life.
With their neurons failing, ALS patients find it increasingly difficult to undertake even the simplest of tasks. Household chores become a struggle as the required motor skills are gradually lost. Loss of coordination can be a symptom of several potentially dangerous causes, so seek medical advice if the symptom persists.
