Asking for Self, Female, 21 years old, Karachi
Hi, it's been 9.5 years that I have been diagnosed with chronic disease. I'm 20 years old, I've had EMG and muscle biopsy already done and doctors are doubtful about lgmd or myositis, lately I've been feeling more weaker so I joined physiotherapy program but the last time I've visited a doctor was 2.5 years ago so I want to see a experience doctor again for a second opinion near me so please suggest me.
I understand that you have a chronic muscle disorder. If you have had an EMG and NCV kindly post the most recent results here. I would also appreciate a brief family history to see whether it is hereditary. It’s always useful to have a repeat EMG/NCV. Kindly share your results here
Thank you for sharing your history. Since you've had progressive weakness for 9.5 years and the diagnosis remains uncertain (LGMD vs. myositis), I recommend a detailed reassessment by a neurologist experienced in neuromuscular disorders. Please share your previous EMG, muscle biopsy, and any other relevant reports so your condition can be reviewed comprehensively. From a physiotherapy perspective, your rehabilitation program should be based on the confirmed diagnosis and your current functional status.

I have not undergone any recent tests, as it has been several years since my last evaluation. The last diagnostic procedure I had was a muscle biopsy in 2022. Additionally, my parents are second cousins. I'm not certain what my next step should be
