Honor Friends, Family and All People with Rare Diseases

Terebellum is pleased to recognise Rare Disease Day on February 28, an annual event to help raise awareness of the 300 million people worldwide living with a rare disease.

People with rare diseases have unique patient journeys and require specialized care which is often difficult to access. Challenges to receiving diagnoses and barriers to care are some of the issues those in the rare disease community face.

People with rare diseases report significant delays in receiving diagnoses for their conditions, some even reporting waiting as long as seven years before finally getting an accurate diagnosis.

Due to the rarity of these diseases, physicians often mistake the symptoms for other, more common conditions. Those seeking specialists often must wait for availability and even travel to other parts of the country to see doctors who have experience with their conditions.

Many rare diseases require more research to develop treatments. Only 5% or fewer of rare diseases are said to have at least one approved treatment. For those who have a condition with treatments available, they must overcome access barriers like costs, receiving pre-approval from insurance and getting referrals for specialists who can prescribe them.
