Adult Polyglucosan Body Disease Research Foundation

Adult Polyglucosan Body Disease (APBD) is a rare inherited disorder that affects the nervous system. It presents as early as age 35 and progresses relentlessly. People with this condition lose their ability to walk, lose bladder/bowel control, often experience unusual fatigue, and may have problems with cognition. A variety of other functions impacted by the nervous system may also be impacted.

The Adult Polyglucosan Body Disease Research Foundation is dedicated to finding a cure for APBD, while improving the lives of those affected.
