Jen, a patient from the US and Isabel, a patient from the UK, both of who have been living with hypoparathyroidism for many years, describe their daily experiences, challenges and solutions for dealing with the their disease; and world-leading Endocrinologist, Professor Maria Luisa Brandi, of the University of Florence in Italy, describes a typical day in the office, including the exchange Professor Brandi has with patients, and her knowledge of the clinical aspects of managing the disease.
