Dysferlin DNA screening   Message List

Hello to everyone
 
I am a 44 years old man who started to have neuromuscular weakness at 15 years old. I am married and I have my own business. I am new to this group and I just want to suggest everyone to have their Dysferlin gene DNA analyzed. That is the best available way to confirm the diagnosis and find out which type of DNA mutation raise the lack of Dysferlin. That is a very important information which researchers need for possible treatment options. The Dysferlin gene DNA mutational analysis is available at the University of Utah. I have mine done in September and the result indicate a premature stop codon mutation gives rise to the lack of Dysferlin protein in my muscle.
 
Also, I would like to suggest to everyone to register to the our foundation, The Jain Foundation.
 
thanks,
          Alfred
