    In case anyone else was wondering, Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a genetic disorder characterized by progressive muscle degeneration and weakness due to the alterations of a protein called dystrophin.

    Thanks for a great video. This raises so many really excellent points about diagnosis and treatment. Most GPs simply won’t pick up on rare diseases. Even Duchenne, one of the most common rare diseases, is often overlooked. Even specialists in related, but separate fields, won’t spot it. Like so many others, we knew something was wrong, but kept being told by doctors it was nothing. Interestingly, it was an A&E consultant who I think first picked up on it when we took our son to hospital for a leg injury. Without being specific, he said we should get our son checked out. Eventually, we got a referral to a an orthopaedic paediatrician, who said he had no concerns and told us to come back in a few years! It was only when we persisted and got referral to a really great developmental paediatrician that she picked up on Duchenne within 5 minutes with two key markers that are really obvious to anyone who know what to look out for with Duchenne: delayed speech and Gowers.

    Hey dude! This is so smart! I have been trying to research for an insightful video that really informs the stuff in this UA-cam video. 👩‍⚕️ 🩺Your video reminds me of the channel from Dr Ethan! Dr's tips are totally useful and he really helped me on my finals! He is an educational Doctor! I recommend you watch his page out and give the medical student a like! 👉 #DrEthanCare
