关于这个播客 🔗
Welcome to Rarely Discussed, an American Porphyria Foundation Podcast, with your hosts Andrew McManamon and Nicole Castellano. We both have Porphyria, which is a rare disease. As scientifically different as rare diseases can be, we share many similarities on how it affects our lives. We’re here to open the discussion and give the porphyria and rare disease community a safe place to connect, learn and heal. Being rare can feel lonely and isolating, but we’re stronger together.
