Lou Gehrig made is Major League debut in 1923 but only had 26 at bats, and 12 in 1924. Lou gehrigs first full season was in 1925.

When Lou Gehrig began showing symptoms of the disease is not really known but his performance on the field started to drop off during the 1938 season and he also complained about being tired a lot. He was diagnosed with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis in June, 1939 and passed away on June 2, 1941. So he lived 2 years after being diagnosed with the disease and may have been showing symptoms a year before he was diagnosed.
