What is 22q11

22q11 is a syndrome that starts when a tiny part of one of your chromosomes is missing.
Because those chromosomes run throughout your body, 22q11 can affect many parts of your body and brain. When you’re born, you might have problems with your heart or your palate, and as you grow you might find you struggle with maths or have a hard time sitting still in class. In fact, there are more than 180 ways 22q11 might affect your body and your mind, which can make life trickier for you.
