Here is some info on genetic testing for the Muscular dystrophies. http://www.mda.org.au/Information/Pu...icsTesting.pdf

"Muscular dystrophy" covers more than one condition, it is important to gather as much family info as you can that you can take to the genetic counsellor. If your uncle and partmer's sister have different muscular dystrophies then your chsnces will be different than if they have the same condition. Find out what specific MDs they have and if genetic testing has been performed and their gene changes identified. If testing was done in another State you will need to know the name of the clinic/hospital that they went through.
