Want this question answered?
World wide around 8 cases per 100,000 persons are affected by Huntington's Disease. The number varies somewhat because it is genetic.
Less than 1 in 10,000
In the United States, about 1 in every 30,000 people has Huntington's Disease.
Yes. Since HD is carried on a dominant gene, it is not possible to be a carrer, and not be affected by the disease.
Huntington's Chorea
There is no cure for Huntington's Disease at this time, and I know of no cases of spontaneous remission (disease just goes away) Survival rate is not an appropriate term. Some people live a long and productive life with Huntington's, some people are affected earlier or more profoundly. If you or a family member has Huntington's, please visit the website for the Huntington's Disease Society of America- some very good information, and links to resources.
