Will my child inherit my?

Patient's question:

Lately, I don't know why I can't sleep, which is greatly affecting my work efficiency. My friend recommended that I see a neurologist. I'm wondering if there's a chance of passing myotonic dystrophy to my child?

Doctor's answer:

Currently, there is no particularly effective method for treating myasthenia gravis. It must be managed by suppressing symptoms through medication, thereby achieving the goal of clinical remission. This disease is prone to flare-ups, so it is essential to take medication regularly on a daily basis. There is a certain possibility of hereditary transmission across generations, but it is not absolute. This disease cannot heal on its own; the only option is to suppress symptoms and prevent its occurrence. This is ultimately our goal.
