AI Summary

This Joint Resolution designates March of each year as "Fibromuscular Dysplasia Awareness Month" in New Jersey to increase public and medical understanding of Fibromuscular Dysplasia (FMD), a disease causing abnormal cell growth in artery walls that can lead to serious complications like narrowing, tears, and aneurysms, and which, though often considered rare, may be underdiagnosed and disproportionately affects women, with patients and their families frequently facing challenges in diagnosis and treatment, and the resolution also requests the Governor to issue a proclamation encouraging appropriate activities and programs to observe this month, recognizing the efforts of organizations like the Fibromuscular Dysplasia Society of America (FMDSA) in raising awareness and supporting research.
