Thumbs up Inclusion Body Myositis

Hi All,

In the past few years I have been meeting more and more individuals diagnosed as having Inclusion Body Myositis (IBM). Recently it was suggested to me via one of those patients that doctors are now saying that IBM is the leading cause of falls in the elderly.

I don't remember being taught about this was in my undergraduate days so I thought I'd post a topic here along with a recent review. You can click on the attachment to download it and have a read. You might well have come across such patients albeit without any diagnosis.
