    Cathy….at present, in the US population it is diagnoses in 5 to 6 thousand patients per year.

    That would certainly be more globally rather than the USA Catherine but even then not sure how accurate these figures would be. The latest figures that came out in the UK alone show rates of 1965 for 2013 and these were just released this summer. Sadly as well, incidence rates are rising worldwide.

    More info on UK figures from AMMF in the UK –

    Rick-

    Thank you for posting. However, i was surprised to see such a high numbers for number of cases in the US; is it really 20,000 or should that be globally?

    Thanks again,

    Catherine
