Manage episode 517585887 series 3667542
When you're living with a chronic condition like MS, you want to be sure you're doing everything you can to preserve and promote good health. And, right now, you may be feeling confused about whether you should be getting vaccinated, and which vaccines are safe. It's understandable. Unfortunately, there's a lot of confusing information about vaccines and vaccinations floating around out there.
This week, Dr. Lisa Doggett helps us get past all the unnecessary noise and hysteria and reviews the science-based vaccine recommendations for people living with MS.
We're also talking about the historic meeting that took place last week between the FDA and people affected by MS.
We're sharing dramatic results from the largest study of its kind that measured the true impact of MS on quality of life.
And we're giving you all the details about the National MS Society's upcoming Black MS Experience Summit.
We have a lot to talk about! Are you ready for RealTalk MS??!
