Zac Brown Band’s Founder Reveals ALS Diagnosis

It was about three years in the past that Zac Brown Band’s founding member, bass participant John Driskell Hopkins, started to note he was having steadiness points and stiffness in his fingers and legs. He had hassle enjoying his devices, together with guitar, bass and ukulele. His signs received worse, after which he started slurring his speech.

In December of 2021, the 51-year-old was identified with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), a progressive neurodegenerative illness that impacts nerve cells within the mind and spinal wire.

Hopkins went public along with his prognosis lately, bringing consideration once more to this illness that has no treatment.

Lucas Meira-Benchaya, MD, a neurologist with Hartford HealthCare’s Ayer Neuroscience Institute at Hartford Hospital, mentioned that whereas two or three years is a very long time earlier than receiving a definitive prognosis of ALS, getting there is usually a circuitous route.

Sometimes, his new sufferers come to him after they’ve first seen their main care supplier, after which a specialist. Relying on the preliminary signs, the specialist might be in orthopedics, digestive well being, pulmonology and even one other neurologist.

That is typically the case due to ALS’s most typical signs:

  • Tripping and falling.
  • Bother swallowing.
  • Inappropriate crying, laughing or yawning.
  • Muscle cramps and twitching in arms, shoulders or tongue.

“It might probably actually be a problem to diagnose,” Meira-Benchaya mentioned. “Somebody can have issue swallowing, for instance, and they’ll begin with their main care after which be referred to a gastroenterologist. Doable remedies gained’t work, and ultimately signs will unfold, and that’s when they’re referred to me.”

Shoulder points can convey a affected person to an orthopedic surgeon, “as they could assume it’s a rotator cuff situation. Or if somebody has foot drop (issue lifting the entrance a part of the foot), that is perhaps a nerve harm however can also be a symptom of ALS.”

As soon as ALS is suspected, Meira-Benchaya mentioned, there are exams to verify the illness. The most typical is electromyogram (EMG), which evaluates {the electrical} exercise of muscle groups after they contract and after they’re at relaxation.

“We verify greater than 20 completely different muscle groups, together with the tongue,” he mentioned. “We additionally do an MRI to rule out something that mimics ALS, like a number of sclerosis, stroke, mind an infection or spinal nerve compression.”

Sadly, as soon as the prognosis is made, there isn’t rather more medically that may be performed. Meira-Benchaya mentioned there are two medicines, Riluzole (Rilutek) and Edaravone (Radicava). They’ll lengthen life expectancy by a number of months or sluggish the decline in day by day operate, however the outcomes should not vital.

As an alternative, a multidisciplinary staff that features the neurologist, bodily therapist, occupational therapist, speech therapist, pulmonologist, social employee and a palliative care specialist, work collectively to lengthen the affected person’s high quality of life. The typical life expectancy after prognosis is 2 to 5 years.
