In most cases this is diagnosed by age five. In that case the child would need a wheelchair by about age 12. Most likely the child will start to have heart and lung issues by late teens or early twenties. My guess no longer than thirty.

How old is the oldest person with limb girdle muscular dystrophy?

As of my last update in October 2023, specific information about the oldest person living with limb-girdle muscular dystrophy (LGMD) is not widely documented, as LGMD encompasses a range of genetic subtypes and affects individuals differently. However, some individuals with milder forms of LGMD have been known to live into their 50s, 60s, or even longer. The age of the oldest known person with the condition may vary, and ongoing research may shed light on longevity in these cases.


Can any patient of muscular dystrophy get married?

Of course people with muscular dystrophy can get married. My partner of 9 years and I would love one day to get married. We have a deep emotional connection to each other as well as a deep physical connection, despite his disability. He has the ability to laugh, love, live and learn just like me, or anyone else who is able bodied. My partner has been a wheelchair user for about 17/18 years now, and was diagnosed with Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy when he was 8. He is a beautiful, precious treasure to me, and his disability is just something we live with.
