Interviewed by Moyez Jiwa
After suffering a stroke and dissecting three of the four arteries that supply blood flow to her brain, Pam Mace was diagnosed with Fibromuscular Dysplasia (FMD). There was no patient organization at the time, and Pam quickly learned there was a lack of knowledge and understanding of FMD. She applied her nursing knowledge and skills to raise awareness of FMD and to promote education. FMDSA was incorporated in 2003, and after volunteering with the organization for six years, she gave up her clinical nursing career to serve as the Executive Director of FMDSA.
