Treatment options are real slim for ALS.

One thing I would try is to get tested for Lyme (which mimics ALS) by IGeneX. It costs about $450 but if it shows positive for Lyme, that's a lot better diagnosis than ALS.

Alternative options include chelation, cold laser, photon light beam, sauna, massages, percussor, hyperbaric chamber, supplements, rife machine, stem cell, live cell, mycoplasma vaccine, phosphotidycholine injections, but I really question the efficacy of any of the above.

Go to a forum called ALSTDI (google it for the address), and you'll see all the talk about treatments for ALS. I'm sorry to say it is not very hopeful.

There are many clinical trials underway, but there are no treatment options yet.

However, most ALS patients are subscribed with Riluzole, which slows down the progression of the disease.

I suggest you visit www.als.net for further information.
