💖 Fabry Disease & the Heart 🫀

A rare genetic condition with a big cardiac footprint—Fabry disease can cause left ventricular hypertrophy, arrhythmias, microvascular angina, and heart failure even when ejection fraction is preserved.

🔍 Early detection is key – Genetic testing, advanced imaging (CMR with T1 mapping, strain echocardiography), and awareness of “red flag” signs can change outcomes.

💊 Therapies are evolving – From enzyme replacement therapy to migalastat, and promising gene and substrate reduction approaches, science is bringing new hope.

🌍 Let’s spread awareness, support advocacy, and push for earlier diagnosis to prevent irreversible heart damage.
