    lucky me ;) I actually know more females with this disease than men. I have read that its most common in men generally speaking of Muscular Dystrophy.

    I was diagnosed with LGMD ~ 10 yrs ago. Quads would give out when jogging. I’m now 48. Can’t run or jog anymore but still get around with cane as my balance is a bit off. I normally have to push-off on chair arms or table to get out of chairs. How did they determine you had 2A form? The Dr. never really said what version I have? I really appreciate your video and hope to see more like this so we can all share our experiences with this physical “bump in the road” we are dealing with. Good work!

    nice cleavage! i use one hand on the knee and one hand on the couch or chair,or even my dog (big belgian Shepperd) is getting used to being my ‘personal lifter’ on commando ‘pull’ she pulls a rope toy that I’m holding on to on on ‘steady’ she knows i’m leaning and pushing on to her!
    LG’s getting creative!

    Part 2
    I do experience physical pain, but paracetamentol take it away. I also take magnesium when I have cramps. Thanks a lot for sharing. Wish you all the best.
    JOHN GRAYBILL RULES for starting this.
    Take care, love Ola

    Part 1
    Hi Jennifer, thanks a lot for this great video. I am rising from the coach the exact same way. To actually see others with the same medical condition makes me feel less alone. I am 31 years old, from norway and what really kills me is how I cant run around and play with my four year old daughter. What I am very interested in knowing is how old where you when you got diagnosed and how old you are now? Do you experience physical pain?

  21. BackstreetAbortion says:

    Oh and please make more videos!!!!!

  22. BackstreetAbortion says:

    haha I’m not ready for a commode yet! But I’m sure they are handy things!

  23. JDBoogy510 says:

    Hey, I’m glad it helped :) Anything you have questions on—feel free to ask. Oh, and as for the toilet part (haha) why not try a “commode”? Its a beautiful thing!!!!! It’s alot easier too!

  24. BackstreetAbortion says:

    Hey! I just tried out your technique!
    IT WORKS!! Im gonna start doing that a few times over and over again. And stand like that everytime I get out of the couch and off of the toilet! I always lean towards the counter and use that to leverage myself up off the toilet. But now I can do it without holding on to the counter! Thanks so much! Hopefully soon I will get more used to it and be able to sit down in public!! :D

  25. BackstreetAbortion says:

    thanks so much! I don’t feel so alone now!
    I have my sister that I live with has MD so I kinda got an MD friend lol. But I’ve never seen anyone else with MD. You have alot of courage for showing that on video. For me I’m always embarrassed, and when I go in public I have to make sure I can sit in a chair that I can get out of. I always feel stupid for standing up in a waiting room, cause I can’t sit in a chair without something like a table in front of me to help me get up. Im subscribing!
