Hello everyone, my name is Christina Ray,39, and I live in S.E.
Oklahoma. I FINALLY got my diagnosis yesterday at the MDA Clinic in
Oklahoma City. I have LGMD2B. My first symptom was May of 2007, I
went to tip-toe to turn off a ceiling fan and couldn't. I waited
until October, when I started falling down to go to the doctor, and
have been waiting a diagnosis ever since. Well, now I have
it....little bit of a bummer!! Hoping that I can connect with people
here, make friends and find some hope. I have a hard time getting to
my computer to post, but I promise I will make the effort everyday
that I can to read postings and be an active part of this group.
Looking forward to getting to know ya'll.
Christina
