Episode 45: Building Better Caregivers with Dr. Kate Lorig

The caregiver's journey doesn't always get paid the proper amount of attention until a family caregiver finds themselves feeling isolated, overwhelmed, drained, and depressed. But it doesn't have to come to that. My guest is Dr. Kate Lorig, lead author of Building Better Caregivers: A Family Caregiver's Guide to Reducing Stress and Staying Healthy. And we're talking about how to go about building better caregivers. We're also talking about a new MRI technique that may enable doctors to identify MS patients who are at high risk of disease progression and disability, whether Tysabri can improve MS sexual dysfunction, a new film about how an "invisible disease" can impact everyday daily living, and a clinical trial that's looking at whether two popular "MS diets" can improve MS fatigue. We have a lot to talk about. Are you ready for RealTalk MS? ___________
