    The Art of Hope with Lydia Emily

    There are some people who, once you meet them, it's impossible to forget them. They seem to leave an indelible impression. Lydia Emily is one of those people. Whether it's through her art that occasionally escapes the canvas to be expressed as massive urban murals proclaiming End MS, or through her outspoken MS advocacy. Lydia Emily is a force. Now, along with co-author Lenlee Keep, Lydia Emily has channeled that energy into a book entitled, The Art of Hope: The Life and Art of Lydia Emily. Lydia Emily and her co-author, Lenlee Keep, join me this week to talk about the process of writing the book and some of the issues affecting people with MS that Lydia Emily is passionate about. We'll also tell you about study results that provide an answer to how nerve cells die in MS. We'll share results from a study that shows MS progression may not be directly connected to the number of lesions someone may have. And we'll tell you about research that provides evidence for continuing your MS disease-modifying therapy, no matter your age. We have a lot to talk about! Are you ready for RealTalk MS??! This Week: The Art of Hope   :22 A study uses a novel mouse model to explain how nerve cells die in MS  2:17 Study results show that MS progression may have less to do with the number of lesions and more to do with what's happening inside those lesions  5:23 Study results provide evidence for continuing your DMT, even as you age  9:15 Artist Lydia Emily and co-author Lenlee Keep discuss The Art of Hope: The Life and Art of Lydia Emily  14:17 Share this episode  34:50 Have you downloaded the free RealTalk MS app?  35:11 SHARE THIS EPISODE OF REALTALK MS Just copy this link & paste it into your text or email: https://realtalkms.com/377 ADD YOUR VOICE TO THE CONVERSATION I've always thought about the RealTalk MS podcast as a conversation.

    Adding Dance, Music, and Art Therapy to Your MS Treatment Plan with Dr. Francois Bethoux

    On this podcast, we tend to talk a lot about new technologies, emerging treatments, the most recently approved disease-modifying therapies, and even some DMTs that haven't yet been approved.   And in the midst of all that cutting-edge research and evolving science, it's easy to lose sight of the fact that expressive therapies like dance and movement therapy, music therapy, and art therapy have all been shown to help promote self-efficacy, emotional well-being, and motor control in people living with MS. Dr. Francois Bethoux joins me on today's episode to discuss the benefits of integrating dance and movement therapy, music therapy, and art therapy into your treatment plan to help manage your MS symptoms and enhance your well-being. November is National Family Caregivers Month, and we're sharing a neat piece of tech that can not only make life easier for MS caregivers but can make life better for their care recipients, as well.

    Managing Teenage MS with Dr. Ann Yeh

    Being a teenager is hard. So, imagine for a moment that in addition to everything else that teenagers have to endure, you're a teenager who's been diagnosed with MS. Your ability to participate in after-school activities or just hang out with your friends is impacted by MS-related fatigue. The typical adolescent anxiety over something someone posted on social media evolves into depression. And cognitive issues begin to make it harder for you in the classroom. This is an unfortunate reality for many adolescents who are living with MS. Joining me to discuss how MS affects adolescents and how families can help manage MS is Dr. Ann Yeh. Dr. Yeh is a Professor of Pediatric Neurology at the University of Toronto and the director of the MS and Neuroinflammatory Disorders Program and Fellowship Program at the University of Toronto's Hospital for Sick Children, known as SickKids.  We'll also tell you about a new online resource for MS care partners. We'll share the results of a study that explored how different symptom management responsibilities impact MS care partners. We'll share details of a study that demonstrated positive results in improving MS-related fatigue. We'll tell you about the discovery of a plant-based molecule that is showing promise in promoting myelin repair. And we're sharing surprising research results that have more than doubled the prevalence of MS in Australia. We have a lot to talk about! Are you ready for RealTalk MS??!

    Grieving When You're Living With MS with Dr. Holly Hendin

    Learning to live with MS is learning to live with loss. For some, those losses may be minor and seem relatively insignificant. For others, those losses can be huge and life-altering. The definition of grief is an emotional response to a significant loss. It's not unusual to grieve over those things in your life that have been lost due to MS. In fact, healthy grieving is a necessary emotional step to moving forward in life. Dr. Holly Hendin, a faculty physician and psychiatrist at St. Joseph’s Hospital Medical Group Outpatient Behavioral Health in Phoenix, Arizona, joins me to explore grieving when you live with MS. We'll also share the results of a study that show other health conditions can have a negative impact on MS disease activity, like relapses and disability worsening. And we're sharing the details of the $4.6 million dollar investment the National MS Society is making in research focused on myelin repair. We have a lot to talk about!

    Open enrollment is underway! And if you're one of the 25% of people living with MS who get their coverage through Medicare, there are some major changes coming in 2025. So, it's especially important that you review your prescription drug coverage to make sure you're enrolled in the Medicare Part D plan that's best for you.   Sarah Anderson, pharmacist and senior director of clinical resources and programming at the National MS Society, joins me to help us decipher those changes and navigate the sometimes confusing world of health insurance. We'll also tell you about a research team that's editing human DNA to promote myelin repair. We'll share the results of a study that offers some surprising evidence about the quality of MS care for women in France.  We'll explain why a study that shows people with MS are at a higher risk for being diagnosed with cancer may not be as scary as it sounds.
