Duchenne muscular dystrophy is a sex-linked genetic disorder which affects only boys. Becker muscular dystrophy is a milder form of the disease. Boys are affected with muscular dystrophy when they inherit an X chromosome from their mother containing a mutated dystrophin gene.
My Electronic MD is a symptom checker which allows you to find likely causes of your symptoms in a relatively short period of time. After selecting your main complaint, you will be asked to select a scenario representing a constellation of symptoms that best fits your history, similar to the way physicians make diagnoses in the office.
