I have been going through so many tests for the 3 years, finally they are concluding muscular dystrophy, but they can't tell me which form because I'm currently waiting for my appointment for a muscle biopsy.

Has anyone else had a muscle biopsy???
What does it feel like???
What are the after effects???

Does anyone have muscular dystrophy???

I'm so tired of all the testing that I'm just so glad that I will finally have an official diagnosis, but am stressed over what form it is and what it's going to do to me
Help anyone???

I don't have muscular dystrophy, I have Spina Bifida, but I DO know a fair number of people with MD.

That tells you what will happen, I'm glad you won't have to be in pain for it!

This is some good info about MD too: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muscular_dystrophy
