text: Actually, dystrophy is completely distinct from atrophy - since dystrophy is caused by genetic mutations that usually cause structural problems in the muscle - resulting in myofiber breakdown and consequence regeneration... this mechanism is distinct from atrophy...  though the result obviously is weakness.
As opposed to getting atrophic muscle, in early stages of dystrophy you actually see compensatory hypertrophy -  muscle that is larger in size, but relatively weak, due to the problems with the actual muscle fibers.

thread_title: Confusing/nonsensical Sentence

message: This is the generic term and should be the name of this article.  A UTI is one of the main causes of weakness but does not particularly pertain to mm. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 17:13, 16 February 2010 (UTC)

thread_title: Rename to Weakness

message: I removed the claim that true muscle weakness doesn't occur in CFS, which was contradicted by the well-referenced next sentence anyway, as well as e.g. . Prolonged episodes are often triggered by pushing through muscle fatigue, which is possibily where the confusion arises.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 149.254.219.161 (talk) 20:24, 12 April 2014 (UTC)
