@Ericks - sorry man. Cast the net a bit wider....I put my faith in Aga Khan - as a university hospital I think they also have an equally good arsenal of specialists...how old is your friend? Sometimes people overlook strokes because the risk factors do not appear to be there....age,diabetes,obesity,smoking,etc....these days even a 25 year old can suffer a stroke...which is why I asked abt possible trauma...or perhaps he had an operation a while back?

The problem with equality is that we desire that it be with those that have more than us rather that those that have less

@ Kamaa.... Thanks man...

@ Djinn.... The guy is 30 years of age,i dont know much about strokes but i think an MRI would have found something in his brain that would lead to a stroke related conclusion.... fluid samples from his spine were send to agha khan and nairobi hospital for testing,thats how the doctors found out that his motor neurons appear to be dead and thus not functional....
@ Much know...... Thats exactly what we are looking for,doctors who can tell for sure or rather to a high degree of probability that its the right condition being diagnosed therefore speeding up his recovery......

Its just me

Sorry man. Do some research on MND's (Motor Neuron Diseases) aka ALS (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis) now that you say the motor neurons are dead. ALS though affects people between the ages of 50 - 70. Had an uncle with ALS and he was treated in South Africa is very ok right now. Had the same symptoms as your friend.

@Ericks

My cousin says he was at Edendale Hospital (I hope I got the spelling correct) though the doctors came from India and Pakistan. Have no further details but I can ask my cousin if you require any.

I will also remember him in Prayers.

Mean while you can try Dr. G. S. N. Wanene. He is an ardent researcher in the field of medicine and a practicing medical doc. He has a Private Hospital in Kikuyu Town. Unfortunately i dont have his contacts for now. The hospital is located on the outskirts of Kikuyu town past the railway lines,i think (I am not sure and i have been there once in 2006) on your way to Ondiri. Once in Kikuyu town,request to be directed to Wanene's Hospital. He is popular in the town.
