Hello:
After several years of pursuing a diagnosis and finally being told I have a variant of progressive muscular atrophy, a muscle biopsy at recent knee replacement surgery suggests the possibility of a toxic or drug-induced mitochondrial myelopathy. Has anyone had any experience with this? My limited understanding suggests this is a genetic condition with an early age of onset. My neurologic conditions started when I was 61. I'd be thankful for any information anyone can provide.
