Do you have ALS, or care for someone with ALS?
ALS - amyotrophic lateral sclerosis
is also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease.
If you are an ALS patient
you can help us create an accurate picture of the disease
by joining the National ALS Registry.
For many of us, what we know about ALS
starts and ends with the story of this baseball legend
But we don’t have all the pieces to the ALS puzzle.
Joining the registry is simple
and it only takes about five minutes.
Your information, combined with other patients’ information
could help scientists as they work to determine the causes
of ALS, find treatments, and perhaps one day, a cure.
In the future, your information could help
others with ALS live longer, healthier lives.
For more information about the registry
or to join, please visit: www.cdc.gov/als
Thank you for helping ATSDR complete the picture
as we strive to solve the puzzle of ALS.
