Episode 99: Standing Up in MS with Professor Jenny Freeman

My guest is Jenny Freeman, Professor of Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation at the University of Plymouth, in the United Kingdom. Professor Freeman's research has appeared in more than 150 journals and publications. And she's the co-author of Multiple Sclerosis Care -- A Practical Manual, the reference book for all aspects of MS care. We're going to be talking with Professor Freeman about the just-published results of a clinical trial that I think will add a very effective component to physical rehabilitation for people living with progressive MS.

And if you believe that losing thousands of dollars and gaining no benefit is the worst thing that can go wrong when it comes to unproven stem cell treatments for MS...well, you're not even close. We're talking about how bad it can really get.

We'll also tell you about the new pilot research grants that the National MS Society just announced. You'll learn about a program that offers amazing outdoor adventure experiences to young adults who are living with MS. And did we also mention that these programs are free??? And you'll have an opportunity to participate in a really interesting clinical trial.

We have a lot to talk about. Are you ready for RealTalk MS??!
