| Remarks |
Clinically affected; diagnosed at age 47 years; mild bilateral ptosis; poor ability to swallow cold liquids; some weakness in legs; difficulty walking on her heels; PABP2 gene testing revealed one allele with 9 GCG repeats (expanded) and one allele with 6 GCG repeats (normal); Family history: mother, maternal aunt, two maternal cousins; maternal grandmother (and many of maternal grandmother’s siblings) are also affected. |
