thanks for your response.
Correlation/Causation- With you there! I learned that early on in the course of the disease that the 2 C's are VERY different and the tendency is great to confuse the two.

So maybe I am reading it wrong. What I got from it is that taking a dmd is a good thing because it a milder disease course is better than a more severe one.
Is that your understating?

In any case thank you for your response. I appreciate engaging with like minded Ms'ers about stuff like this.

Its a whole new level of support beyond the "sorry you are going thru this now, hope it eases soon.'
