Lou gehrig’s diease  Lou gehrig diease is a diease of the nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord that control voluntary muscle movement.

Picture

Notes:  How does it affect your body ?  It damages your motor nuerons the brain and spinal cord.  This cause your motor nuerons in the brain to shrink and disspear.  The nervous system is most affected by lou geghrigs diease.the musclucar system is also affected by lou geghrig diease.

Treatment /cost  There is no treatment for asl but the medicine used is called riluzole it slows the diease progression and prolongs life.  The therapy cost about 1700$ a week.
