Exclamation Neurodegenerative Diseases...(ND)

What is really disturbing to me is the potential link between Cyanobacteria exposure and ALS (Lou Ghering disease). Don't mess around with exposure

For the last 25 years, I've suffered with a mild case of RLS--a "neurodegenerative" disease (ND)--and being treated with prescription Neurotin for about 20 years.

At this Wednesday's routine visit to Neurologist Dr. Surianyi, I forgot to ask about the relationship with my ND and the lake's Cyanobacteria.

As a young camper and lakefront dweller of about 80 summers, in Tuftonboro and Wolfeboro waters, I've wakeboarded, waterskied, swam and SCUBA-dove. Now I suspect our lakewaters--especially the eastern shores of Northeastern US lakes--are brewing cyanobacteria that affect one's nervous system. ALS is just the most serious of reactions.

When it's aerosolized behind a boat or in a shower, the ND effects are accelerated.
