Re: new to the concept

I am 22 and have had muscular dystrophy for about 8 years. I have
recently been informed that I have Dysferlin Dystrophy. I don't
really know much about it and would like to hear from anyone that
can help me with this. At prpesent the legs and feet are only
affected. My legs just go from below me and before I know it I am
on the ground. I do get very depressed at times and feel so low.

Please if anyone knows more about dysferlin, I would Appreciate it.
