TSC can sometimes feel isolating. By sharing stories, like Philippa did, we can help bring the TSC community together and highlight the impact that TSC can have on day-to-day lives. Read TSC stories on our website or get in touch to tell us yours: tuberous-sclerosis.org/life-with-tsc/…

Would YOU recognize #infantilespasms is you saw them? Because all three of the parents of the children in this video reported #delay to diagnosis. #ISAN2019

Infantile spasms (IS) cause catastrophic & permanent damage to a child’s developing brain. Check out this video to know what to look for. And share this post to spread the word about IS. #ISAW2019

Thank you @David_Suchet from all of us @UKTSA for raising awareness of rare genetic disease Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (TSC). Good luck on the @thismorning sofa! 🛋 🧬 ⭐️

We'll be keeping a look out for @David_Suchet on ITV's This Morning tomorrow from 10:30, discussing his new book Behind the Lens: My Life. David has helped raise awareness of TSC in interviews about his new book so far, which has been vital in increasing understanding of TSC!

For the first time, the EU has approved a medicinal cannabis (cannabidiol Epidyolex) for children with two rare and severe epilepsy forms. However, the NHS does not currently recommend Epidyolex. We will closely monitor the situation, with final guidance due late this year.
