- Join UCLA nephrologist Anjay Rastogi, MD, for a conversation about Fabry's Disease, an inherited disorder the prevents the body from breaking down fatty substances called lipids due to missing or faulty enzymes. As a result of enzyme deficiency, lipids are not removed from the blood and build up in the body, leading to multiple organ dysfunction. Learn more: www.uclahealth.org/core-kidney/

I read on the US News & World Report that UCLA Nephrology was just ranked #3 in the nation! Congrats!!
I found it morbidly humorous that you had an organ donation comment placed in your slide first thing. Like, " Hey All! In the case you die young, people could use your organs!"
Great talk, thanks so much
Many thanks! Very informative
Beautifully explained sir
Thank you...

Super
can the angioketaromas be very sparse and still be indicative of having it ? angiokeratomas can occur for many reasons
Yes, mine started in my early 20's. They have increased as time has gone on.
i had a braininfarct a jear ago, got an MRI and there was al lot of white matter in my brains, futher blood testing and probebly i have Fabry i now do have tor do the dna testing, its frustrating that i dont find informating about the WML, my memorie is very bad and feels like ist getting worse. does anyone know where to get the right information?
What if I have angiokaratomas and some diarrhea but zero nerve pain. Should I get rested for fabry's
Hi how r u? Get testes for gla gene test
@@VishalPandey710 you need to request an enzyme assay test. Sometimes a regular doctor will request it for you or a geneticist can request it. The affected gene is the GLA gene. In men an ezyme assay test is sufficient for diagnosis.

I have Fabry's and never have hallucinated from it.
if you are here because you googled "purple spots on your balls", and they are "blanchable" as mentioned here... you don't have this :D
Not true. My nuts were the first place they showed up. I now have them on my sides as well.
