We conducted a comprehensive anonymous questionnaire survey on medical care and treatment for patients with myotonic dystrophy, who registered in the Japanese national registry (Remudy) or were undergoing care in seven hospitals specializing neuromuscular diseases. The questionnaire consisted of 49 questions were distributed to 813 patients, and 342 valid responses were collected. Most prevalent symptoms or complaints were dysfunction of fingers and fatigue. One-third of the adult patients left the job, half of which was due to the disease. Twelve percent of the patients did not visit the specialist regularly, the main reason being distance. The most common reason that the patients did not follow the advice of using a ventilator by medical professionals was lack of feeling the need. One-fourth of the adult female patients had infertility treatment, 80% of which was before a diagnosis of this disorder. This first-time nationwide survey revealed the actual condition of Japanese patients with myotonic dystrophy and raised various care-related issues.
