Two weeks ago, thousands of clinicians, nurses, physician's assistants, rehabilitation experts, and others traveled to Nashville to attend the Consortium of Multiple Sclerosis Centers 38th Annual Meeting. This is Part 2 of our coverage from that meeting.
In this episode, we're sharing our conversations with some of the experts who were at the meeting to present their research.
You'll hear the National MS Society's Executive Vice President for Advocacy and Healthcare Access, Bari Talente, share her thoughts on why getting early support when you've been diagnosed with MS can make a difference in how you begin your MS journey.
Dr. Nancy Sicotte talks about why early diagnosis and treatment are important in ensuring the best long-term patient outcomes.
Dr. Brian Sandroff asks and answers the question, “Does exercise improve cognitive function in MS?”
And Dr. Anthony Feinstein shares what he and his team have learned about how cannabis impacts people with MS.
We have a lot to talk about! Are you ready for RealTalk MS??!
