What Is McArdle Disease?
10. Treatment
There is no direct treatment for McArdle disease yet. However, it is possible to manage the condition to limit the impact it will have on the patient’s life. This largely involves being aware of the condition and living your life accordingly. One of the most important things is to not overdo when exercising.
It is advised to warm up gently before exercise, and eating some sugar before your work out can help to prevent symptoms. Getting plenty of protein in your diet can also be very beneficial. McArdle disease can also result in an unwelcome reaction from anesthetics, so it is important to let a doctor know before they are administered.
