A member asked:

Who suffers from pyruvate dehydrogenase deficiency (age, sex, race, etc)?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Suffers: The best way for you to begin to understand this is to go online and look up "Wikipedia" related to this topic. Not always easy to follow but worthwhile. Another option would be to look up the National Institute of Health (NIH). They may put things in an easier ;language.
