Re: Thank You for this forum... I now know what my condition is!

Jan,

Thank you so much for the info. If there is a such way to suppress the problem rather it be through diet or medication then I'm all for it. Over the years, I was heavily involved in sports, specifically flag football. I had to stop playing because of too many episodes and I would try to take off and would end up stiffing up and in many cases falling. I injured myself pretty badly playing FF when I jumped to catch a pass and stiffened up in mid-air and on the way down I couldn't land properly therefore hitting the ground pretty hard. I would love to get back out there and start back playing again but I wouldn't be able to with my MC being this bad. I will certainly take your advice and go to an MDA. That sounds much more beneficial to me and furthering the research on MC.

Type of Myotonia: I think Thomson's
