Kate has MND. ALS is considered a differential diagnosis for neuroborreliosis according to the UKHSA - as is M.S. whilst the point being made by the UKHSA, is not to overlook ALS/MS, the reverse must also be true. I have no intention of being controversial here, but we must pay closer attention to the challenges faced by people like Kate and others, their history, their story and not just the differentials but also potential co-occurring illnesses. Thank you Together Against MND: Kate's Story for sharing your story and bringing about some much needed awareness. We wish you all the very best in making your health and wellbeing choices .x

In Australia, Alpha-gal syndrome is mostly referred to as Mammalian Meat Allergy. That nomenclature is seriously misleading; it’s far more complex than a simple allergy to mammalian meat.

People living with this disease know that avoiding red meat is just the beginning as the data from tickbitedata’s survey clearly shows:

* 72.5% reported reactions to dairy
* 78.6% reported reactions to gelatin-containing foods
* 67.3% reported reactions to gelatin-containing medications
* 73.0% reported reactions from cross-contamination
* 87.9% reported reactions to small amounts of mammalian-derived ingredients

Reactions reported include gastrointestinal symptoms, cardiovascular concerns, skin manifestations, sleep disruption, anxiety, or significant impacts on daily functioning.

This disease can cause neurological symptoms such as brain fog, mental fatigue, headaches, dizziness, and tremors.
