10 Lou Gehrig's Disease Symptoms
Symptom #4: Slurred Speech
The tongue, which is responsible for our ability to form words and make sounds with our mouth, is actually a big muscle. Since Lou Gehrig’s disease impacts our ability to move our muscles, it’s no wonder that people struggling with the condition often have a hard time speaking.
Slurred speech is one of the earlier signs of the condition and can indicate that you might need to take some preparatory steps so you can prevent the disease from worsening too quickly.
