The Patient Perspective
(A note from one of our subjects)
Living with FSHD can provide us with opportunities to be helpful, make a difference, and contribute in a meaningful way to the future. At this point, there is no "cure," but by participating in this important trial you are helping to bring effective treatment ever closer. ReSolve brings significant information to the scientific and medical community, which will further the progress of establishing a treatment plan. This is one way to manage this disease we have no control over at this point.
I have finished 3 of 4 visits spread out over 18 months. The staff deeply appreciates the volunteer effort being made by participants, and I always feel welcome and well taken care of. I believe it is of utmost importance for us to step up to the plate and become part of the network of clinical trials These trials will benefit everyone with FSHD and their families. As my husband and I drive the 5-1/2 hours to participate, I think about being able to help hundreds of thousands of people affected with this disease. Knowing I have been a part of this march for the cure, I will continue to participate in as many trials as possible. By saying yes to the ReSolve trial you make such a difference! If you are considering this trial, I encourage you to take this opportunity to make a difference.
