Re: Myotonia

Logan, scoliosis is not associated with myotonia congenita, so there would be another condition causing it.

Scoliosis is found in patients with myotonic muscular dystrophy, and that can only be distinguished from myotonia congenita in younger patients by DNA testing, not just an EMG.

Did you and your sister have DNA testing to confirm MC?
