I am sorry that this is happening to your husband!.!.!. and it doesn't make it any easier that the neurologists are hedging in their answers!.
The degenerative diseases come in several forms (as you know), but have a variety of causes: ALS, Guillain-Barre, Multiple-Schlerosis, Polio, etc!.
What they are hedging on is labeling this disease before they know for sure!.!.!. the biopsy will be telling and give them enough objective information to say for certain!.
Hopefully, there will be good news after the biopsy!.
Best wishes to you both!.
