Description
On this episode of the Merck Manuals Medical Myths podcast, we focus on Multiple sclerosis or “MS”. MS is characterized by disseminated patches of demyelination in the brain and spinal cord. Dr. Michael C. Levin joins us for this episode and is a Professor of Medicine at the University of Saskatchewan in Saskatoon, Canada, where he is the inaugural Saskatchewan Multiple Sclerosis Clinical Research Chair.
During the episode, Dr. Levin provides insights into MS and dispels the myth that MS is untreatable or a death sentence. Additionally, Dr. Levin explores the impact of MS on your everyday lifestyle,. the possibility of pregnancy for women who are experiencing MS, and why an early diagnosis is crucial to long term success with the disease.
