It can take nearly a decade for the average person with FSHD to get a correct diagnosis. Once they are finally diagnosed accurately, a person may face an equally frustrating quest to find clinicians − doctors, physical therapists, pulmonologists, and other specialists −who fully understand FSHD and can help manage their symptoms.

When you encourage your provider to take this course, there are many benefits!

  • Your provider earns professional credits that they need to maintain their license;
  • You help yourself and others to get the highest standard of diagnosis and care;
  • You improve the quality of clinical trials in FSHD.
