When I began thinking about launching RealTalk MS, one of the first things I did was listen to other podcasts for the MS community. Five years ago, there weren't nearly as many podcasts focused on MS as there are today, but one of the podcasts I listened to was FUMS. And after listening to that podcast, I remember feeling inspired about moving forward with my plans for launching this podcast.
Joining me to talk about her journey from being diagnosed with MS to launching her podcast and learning how patients get paid is the voice and energy behind the FUMS podcast, Kathy Reagan Young.
We're also talking about a new venture from France, aimed at myelin repair.
We'll share the details of a treatment for urinary incontinence for people living with MS that will soon be available in European Union countries.
And we'll tell you about the first robotic exoskeleton that's received FDA clearance for use by people with MS. (And we'll tell you why that's going to make a real difference for some people living with progressive MS!)
We have a lot to talk about! Are you ready for RealTalk MS??!
