Navigating MS Together: A Patient’s Journey and Her Neurologist’s Insight – Episode 191 – Transcript

In this episode, we explore what it’s really like to be newly diagnosed with MS through the personal story of Fran Peed, who went from MS advocate to MS patient. Fran reflects on the first two years of living with MS — a period of uncertainty, adjustment, and learning how to manage both the medical and emotional sides of the diagnosis. Joining her is Dr. Michelle Betz, Fran’s neurologist and a specialist in multiple sclerosis at Sentara Neurology Specialists. Together, they reflect on building a trusting care relationship, navigating the early decisions after diagnosis, and learning how to live well with MS — not just manage it. Whether you’re newly diagnosed or supporting someone who is, this conversation offers honesty, support, and hope.
