Distal Myopathy with Rimmed Vacuoles?


I was wondering if this disease affects your upper limbs. And also if it will completely take away the ability to walk and by about what age.

upper extremities can be involved since the name says distal, which can be distal lower or distal upper extremity muscles, the time line of ability to walk is variable depending on severity of disease, this is a fairly detailed article, hope it helps, good luck
