Understanding rare disease symptoms
Symptoms may affect multiple parts of the body. Understanding which part of the body a symptom affects, can help us to better understand the potential underlying causes of a symptom, including a rare disease or genetic syndrome.
What are Feeding Difficulties?
Feeding difficulties refer to any issues or problems with being able to suck, chew or swallow feed.
As a broader term they may refer to any problem with eating, and wanting to eat, including pickiness around food and/or issues feeding oneself.
What should I do next?
In some instances, feeding difficulties may be one of the features of a rare disease or genetic syndrome. In this case fast, targeted genetic analysis can give you a more accurate diagnosis.
