International PKU Day today and the start of the summer holidays for our youngest child and PKUer. So she’s double celebrating with a pack of Wotsits and 6 Rowntree’s Randoms while bingeing Star Versus the Forces of Evil. #PKU #PKUday #PKUday2024

PKU Day | E.S.PKU

Sapropterin blood genetics test for PKU Phenylketonuria

A year after I went in for blood tests to determine if my PKU would respond, I finally took my first dose of sapropterin.
