### Patient: Hi Doctor, I've been having some difficulty with my muscles lately. I've been feeling a lot weaker and it's been affecting my ability to move around. I'm also experiencing muscle spasms and cramps more frequently.
### Doctor: Based on your symptoms, it sounds like you may have muscular dystrophy. To confirm this diagnosis, we will need to perform several medical tests. The first test we will perform is a complete physical skin exam to evaluate the condition of your muscle tissue. We will also need to do an electrocardiogram to check the functioning of your heart. In addition, we will need to conduct other diagnostic procedures such as interviews and evaluations to understand the extent of the disease. Finally, an occupational therapy assessment and referral to home health care service may be necessary to help you manage your symptoms. We may also recommend physical therapy exercises and other therapeutic procedures to help you regain some of your mobility.
