Your data will power breakthroughs for FSHD
When FSH Muscular Dystrophy impacts a family, they have one goal: to live their best life, which includes finding treatments and a cure. There are no approved drugs yet to treat FSHD, but at the FSHD Society, we are working hard to advance research and speed drug development.
There is so much to learn and getting those answers depends on you. When you participate in research, you
- help researchers understand how FSHD progresses;
- help establish the tools needed to see if new drugs are effective;
- increase understanding of the costs of living with FSHD;
- advance knowledge about the diversity in the FSHD community;
- improve care at the doctor’s office.
