Patient information
If you are diagnosed with FD/MAS, or if you think you have FD/MAS there are some important things to realize:
- You are not alone! You have a rare condition, and you probably have never met another person in your life with FD/MAS, but there are various patients’ associations in the world bringing patients together.
- FD/MAS is so rare that you could be the first person with FD/MAS that your doctors have ever treated. Therefore, it is important that you visit a specialized doctor, preferably in a specialized hospital or center of expertise for bone disease.
We understand that a visit to a hospital can be stressful and it can be difficult to understand and remember the information that was given to you during a consult. That is why we have developed a Patient Guide: a checklist for patients to help discussion with your doctor and healthcare team and to get the most out of your doctor appointment.

Also there is an information pamphlet special for children! You can download that here
