The channel features videos from our Winter Seasons 2021 and 2022 including presentations from medical professionals and patients’ stories. The channel also has videos on GSDs, courses, meetings and conferences, and covering some of our fundraising events. Several of the GSDs have their own playlists.

Glycogen Storage Disease 9d – IamGSD

Have you, a family member, or a friend been diagnosed with GSD9d – known as the muscle-specific subtype of GSD9? This group offers individuals with GSD9d (both diagnosed and those seeking a diagnosis) and family/friends an online community to ask questions, share experiences and build relationships world-wide.
In addition, the Admins post evidence-based information and updates about the condition, how to manage day-to-day, current research, and international events.
PLEASE NOTE: we do not cover the other subtypes of GSD9, primarily involving the liver, for which there are other more relevant Facebook groups.

These general and GSD9 facebook groups are not linked to or run by AGSD-UK

Remember, these groups are not run by medical professionals, but it can be very helpful in swapping experiences with other people affected by GSD. However, take care not to treat someone’s opinion as scientific fact.
