Helping primary care healthcare professionals recognise Glycogen Storage Disease

Raising awareness

The aim is to raise awareness of the condition among GPs and to support GPs who have a patient with one of these very rare diseases.

Differential diagnosis

Produced under the direction of AGSD-UK, the course provides background about these diseases, highlights how these patients may present to GPs, and the differential diagnosis and work up. It also covers management and emphasises the role of highly specialised centres.

Continuing professional development
