FTD is genetic in about 20% of cases. Yet only 23.3% of people diagnosed and 12.4% of relatives have had genetic testing. Learn why this matters: ftdregistry.org/press/what-r...

FTD impacts more than health. It strains finances. Care partners say the top job effects are retiring early, cutting hours permanently, or cutting them temporarily.

FTD impacts care partners too with stress, lost income & financial strain.

At #AAIC25, the FTD Disorders Registry showed how misdiagnosis & delays deepen that burden: ftdregistry.org/press/regist...

This #WorldFTDAwarenessWeek, let’s honor care partners & push for faster diagnoses.

FTD disorders can make someone seem like a stranger to their loved ones.

Registry data show three of the most distressing symptoms are impaired judgment, personality changes, and mood changes. www.ftdregistry.org

Memory isn’t usually the first thing to change in FTD.

Registry data shows the most common early symptoms are:
• Language challenges
• Cognitive changes
• Mood changes

Raising awareness helps speed diagnosis & research.
