    Extractions: Christine (Feigert) Swanson When I was in my early teens, I was having an ice cream at the mall with some friends, and suddenly I couldn't move a muscle. The paramedics and the fire department came and I had to be wheeled out on a stretcher. The doctors, my parents and friends were baffled by what had happened. Many of the doctors doubted there was anything wrong with me. I had similar attacks over the years. Finally, it was found that I had hyperkalemic periodic paralysis , one of the myopathies described in this booklet. If you've recently found out you have an inheritable myopathy, you understand what my family and I went through. Because of the rarity of these diseases, your primary physician may not be aware that many of these myopathies can be managed with medication or changes in diet and exercise. This is why it's very important that you get all the information you can about your disorder. This pamphlet will help you get started. Learning that you or your child has a rare myopathy can be frightening and confusing. Some people may think you're lazy or mentally unbalanced, and that can hurt. One thing you can be sure of is that your disorder wasn't caused by anything you or your parents did, and you didn't catch it from anyone. As this pamphlet explains, each inheritable myopathy is caused by a very uncommon genetic defect that people often don't even know they have. (Two of the myopathies aren't inheritable; they're caused by thyroid imbalances that can occur for no known reason.)

    Extractions: Dear Friends What Are Mitochondrial Diseases? What Causes Mitochondrial Diseases? What Happens to Someone With A Mitochondrial Disease ... MDA Is Here to Help You Dear Friends: If you're reading this pamphlet, it's probably because you have just received a very bewildering diagnosis: mitochondrial myopathy (MM). What is MM and what does it mean? These are questions my husband, Jeff, and I struggled with when our baby daughter, Alycia, was diagnosed with MM in 1995. MM is a disease with many different faces. As you'll read in this pamphlet, dozens of varieties of mitochondrial diseases have been identified, with a complex array of symptoms. Some symptoms can be so mild as to be hardly noticeable, while others are life-threatening. Jeff, Lori, and Alycia Downs Alycia's MM causes gastrointestinal problems that make it difficult for her to get adequate nutrition and gain weight. She also has muscle weakness, epilepsy, drooping eyelids, fatigue, poor balance, hearing loss and learning delays. You or your family member may have similar symptoms, yet each case also is unique. When we first learned that Alycia had MM, we naturally were very frightened and uncertain about the future. As time has unfolded, we've learned that we can do things we didn't think were possible — we can adapt to the uncertainty, control the fear, cope with changes as they occur and still have a "normal" happy family life.

    Extractions: Back to ACR Fact Sheets What Are Myopathies? Autoimmune myopathies are a group of diseases that involve inflammation of the muscles and may be associated with diseases of internal organs. Diseases affecting muscles include polymyositis, dermatomyositis and inclusion body myositis. The main symptom is muscle weakness in the upper arms, upper legs and neck, muscle pain, fatigue, joint pain and swelling, rashes over the face and knuckles, fevers, swallowing difficulty and shortness of breath. Cause The cause of myopathies is unknown, but environmental factors (such as viral infections) and genetic predisposition are felt to be important in some cases. Health Impact Diagnosis Diagnosis is attained through a history and physical exam, certain laboratory tests, muscle biopsy and electromyography (a study of the electrical activity of muscle). Other diseases or conditions such as hypothyroidism, toxin exposure, drug reactions and genetic disorders may also affect muscles and need to be ruled out.
