LGMD \"ENTREVISTA EN PRIMER PLANO\"<\/strong><\/p>\n

Nombre<\/strong>: Ralph\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 EDAD<\/strong>: 58 Yrs. Old\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Pa\u00eds<\/strong>: Estados Unidos<\/p>\n

Subtipo LGMD:\u00a0 <\/strong>LGMD2L \/ \u00a0Anoctaminopathy<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u00bfA qu\u00e9 edad le diagnosticaron<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

I started having symptoms at age 47, back in 2006 and was diagnosed by 2011 when LGMD2L was discovered.<\/p>\n

\u00bfCu\u00e1les fueron sus primeros s\u00edntomas?<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

Leg weakness. I was a big weightlifter and in my 30s had been bench pressing 300 pounds and squatting 400 pounds. But I felt weakness in my left leg and I went to the gym and tried to leg press with one leg at a time. My right leg was able to press 250 pounds but my left was lagging at 150 pounds.<\/p>\n

\u00bfTiene otros familiares que padezcan LGMD?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I have one brother confirmed with 2L. There may be others but we don\u2019t know yet.<\/p>\n

\u00bfCu\u00e1les crees que son los mayores retos de vivir con LGMD?<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

Getting around in all situations. Stairs are hard. Getting out of a chair is hard. Walking is doable but getting more difficult to do for longer distances. And falls always happen if knees buckle or you trip or slip.<\/p>\n

\u00bfCu\u00e1l es su mayor logro?<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

I have been doing a great deal of work in the disability arena, including currently being on the MDA National Community Advisory Committee and working with several other organizations while I also start the LGMD2L Foundation.<\/p>\n

\u00bfC\u00f3mo le ha influido la LGMD para convertirse en la persona que es hoy?<\/strong><\/p>\n

When you look at what I list as my greatest achievement you can tell that having LGMD2L has led me to work for so many people with disabilities of all types.<\/p>\n

\u00bfQu\u00e9 quiere que el mundo sepa sobre la LGMD?<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

That we are getting closer and closer to some real treatments and cures and if we all work together, this achievement of possibly eradicating muscular dystrophy would help so many people and families, present and future.<\/p>\n

Si su LGMD pudiera \"curarse\" ma\u00f1ana, \u00bfqu\u00e9 ser\u00eda lo primero que desear\u00eda hacer?<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

I would begin to work out again like in my youth and focus on building real strength and health while enjoying traveling and the beauties of the world.<\/p>\n
