Fabry disease

I've been a nurse for 17 years and work at my current job for 15 years. I am currently getting enzyme treatments and haven't been feeling good. The enzyme initially manifest the symptoms before u actually feel better.

Have any nurses ever treated any patients with this and what was their outcomes? Better or worse etc

    i'm not sure what you mean. did you mean "magnify" or exacerbate the symptoms before improvement occurs? "manifest" means "appear / demonstrate," as in, "vibrio cholerae infection manifests itself by copious watery diarrhea."

    Yes make them worse before it gets better. Sorry it also effects my brain and makes me stupider. Lol

    information sources:

    [h=3]What is Fabry Disease[/h]Fabry disease results from abnormal deposits of a particular fatty substance (called globotriaosylcera-mide) in blood vessel walls throughout the body. The primary defect which allows this to occur is the inherited deficiency of the enzyme, alpha galactosidase A, which is normally responsible for the breakdown of globotriaosylceramide.

    Joining a support network will be most benefical for this rare disease.
