Guest guest Posted July 6, 2002 Report Share Posted July 6, 2002 Hi, Peggy. Welcome to the group. I have not had any DNA testing, nor have I had a muscle or nerve biopsy. I have 4 older siblings, none of whom have symptoms. My mom and dad had passed away before I was diagnosed 6 years ago. I'm 44 years old. I also have 3 children, ages 15 - 24. None of them seem to be affected either. I'm going to Mayo Clinic next month in Rochester, so I'll be interested to see if they come up with anything. I found your comments about having " episodes " interesting. I personally have symptoms all the time which are more noticable when I'm fatigued, but my illness is an episode in itself. I've never heard symptoms described the way you have. Anyone else out there familiar with having " episodes " ? Again, welcome Peggy. I'm sure you'll find this group to be very supportive and informative. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
