    Mitochondrial Disease Awareness week

    Posted by Leah Leilani on September 17, 2019 at 5:00 pm

    September 15th-21st is Mitochondrial Disease Awareness week. There are a few different types of Mitochondria Dysfunction diseases all having to do with the how the body produces energy.

    My type which is Mitochondrial Myopathy is one of the rarest forms of Muscular Dystrophy. The Krebs Cycle is a function of the body that transforms nutrition into energy. My Krebs Cycle is dysfunctional in stage 1 and 3. Also know as complex 1 and complex 3. I was diagnosed with this disease at age 9 after having a muscle biopsy.

    Do you or anyone you know have a Mitochondrial Disease?
