Re: Pre-myotonia symptoms

I had pretty much the same issues and symptoms at age 3 as I still have. I don't remember life any other way.

Type of Myotonia: Myotonia Congenita, Becker's type

Country: USA

Re: Pre-myotonia symptoms

Fairly sure I had full blown symptoms from birth. Early recollections of 'falling' off and over from about 3 years olds. Unfortunately didnt get diagnosed until aged 10. Parents thought that I was initially windin them up and then that it was all psychological. Dont blame them as it is a funny condition if you dont know what it is and what the syptoms are.

Country: UK
