Dhekshagneya’s Victory Over Pompe Disease with Enzyme Therapy

This video shares the story of Deshma and her daughter Dhekshagneya, who suffers from Pompe disease, an inherited disorder caused by the buildup of glycogen in the body’s cells. The condition was discovered when Dhekshagneya was 5 and a half months old, after doctors noticed heart problems and recommended further tests. Diagnosed with Pompe disease, her treatment began at 7 months with enzyme therapy, which continued for six months. With the support of Dr. Mridula at the Kannur district hospital in Kerala, Dhekshagneya has been receiving the necessary medication for the past three and a half years. Over time, her health has improved, with her bone-related issues resolved and notable progress in her speech therapy. Deshma expresses great happiness with her daughter’s continued progress.
