Experiencing difficulty walking is one of the most common mobility challenges faced by people living with MS. The good news is that there are things you can do -- both with a physical therapist and by yourself, at home -- that can make a real difference. Joining me to discuss improving your gait, avoiding falls, and what experts are learning from the latest research in this area is the Director of Research for the Department of Health Care Sciences at Wayne State University School of Medicine, Dr. Nora Fritz.  We're also sharing the results of a study that looked at whether disease-modifying therapies had an impact on the number of hospitalizations or visits to the doctor someone with MS might experience over a 22-year period. We'll tell you about a study that measured the outcome for people with relapsing-remitting MS who were treated with autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (aHSCT) compared with the outcome for people with relapsing-remitting MS who were treated with Gilenya, Tysabri, or Ocrevus. We'll share the results from a study that analyzed 56 other studies to determine the prevalence of sexual dysfunction among women living with MS. We'll tell you about a nationwide study that's about to get underway that will try to answer the question, 'Should people with MS over the age of 65 discontinue their disease-modifying therapy?' And we'll remind you about how you can join us in Napa Valley this Saturday, July 29th, for Crush MS. We have a lot to talk about! Are you ready for RealTalk MS??!

Episode 308: Improving Your Balance and Walking When You're Living With MS with Dr. Nora Fritz

Judy Boone

Research has shown that, for people living with MS, regular exercise and physical activity can improve their quality of life while helping to manage MS symptoms.    But research has also shown that people living with MS tend to be less active than people in the general population. In response, the National MS Society convened a group of experts to develop fact-based guidance for promoting exercise and lifestyle physical activity for all people with MS, regardless of their ability level.       Joining me to talk about these exercise recommendations along with some of the real benefits that exercise produces for people living with MS is Dr. Nora Fritz, a board-certified Neurologic Physical Therapist and an Assistant Professor in the Physical Therapy Program in the Department of Health Care Sciences and Department of Neurology at Wayne State University School of Medicine, where she’s also the Director of the Neuroimaging and Neurorehabilitation Laboratory.      Judy Boon was diagnosed with MS in 2007. Judy is a true MS Warrior who has fully integrated fitness activities and exercise into her everyday lifestyle. Judy is also joining me to talk about how exercise has impacted her MS journey. We're also talking about a University of Washington study that measured the willingness to receive a COVID-19 vaccine among people living with MS.    We'll tell you about a study from Italy that measured the long-term benefits of autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (aHSCT).   And we're talking about an important survey that measured the perspectives and preferences regarding MS research among racial and ethnic groups.    We have a lot to talk about!
