Rare Disorders

Welcome to Rare-Disorders.com, your one stop information center for rare diseases. Although the internet has made information about many of the more common ailments such as cancer, heart disease, strokes etc, much more readily accessible, there has until now been a shortage of good solid information on many rare disorders.
A rare disorder is usually defined as one that is suffered by 200,000 or less Americans. Although a relatively small percentage of the population, rare diseases affect many peoples lives. Not only the sufferers themselves but also family, friends and carers.

Many disorders such as Galactosemia, Kernicterus, bullous pemphigoid, spina bifida and xeroderma pigmentosum, do not benefit from the same level of publicity as some of the more prevalent conditions.
