Diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis in 2013, Lis van Lynden has refused to let the condition define her limits. With no prior cycling experience or training, Lis set off in 2022 on a solo, unsupported ride around the entire coastline of Great Britain—covering 5,000 miles over seven months and raising over £13,000 for MS charities. Her journey didn't stop there. Lis went on to cycle the Irish coastline and most recently visited 12 of the UK's national parks by bike, with plans to complete the final 3 in 2025. Along the way, she's faced physical challenges, experienced incredible acts of kindness, and become a passionate advocate for others living with MS. Lis's story is one of courage, conviction, and living life on her own terms—no matter the obstacles. *** Catch the latest episodes of the Tough Girl Podcast, dropping every Tuesday at 7 am UK time!

Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a complex neurological condition that impacts an estimated 2.8 million people worldwide. This week we explore the science behind MS, treatment options, and the lived experiences of those navigating life with this chronic illness. Multiple Sclerosis (MS) has been called "the disease of 1000 faces" for good reason - it manifests differently in almost every person it affects. Understanding MS: The Science Behind the Disease Dr. Zied Tayeb, neuroscientist and CEO of MyelinZ, explained the fundamental mechanism of MS in terms anyone can understand: "The brain communicates using electrical signals. These signals travel from one neuron to another through axons, which are protected by myelin sheets that help accelerate the transmission of these signals. In MS, the immune system mistakenly attacks these myelin sheets, leading to demyelination.” This disruption in communication between neurons explains why MS symptoms can vary so dramatically - the location of demyelination determines which functions are affected. "It could be the motor cortex, resulting in mobility issues, or the visual cortex, causing problems with vision," Dr. Tayeb noted. While the exact cause of MS remains unknown, researchers have identified several factors that may contribute to its development. According to our panel, MS is significantly more prevalent in women, who represent approximately 65% of MS patients - possibly due to women's more active immune systems making them more susceptible to autoimmune conditions like MS. Geographic distribution also offers clues, with higher rates in regions farther from the equator such as Canada, northern United States, and parts of Europe (with Denmark having a particularly high prevalence). This pattern has led scientists to investigate a potential link with vitamin D deficiency, though studies remain inconclusive. The Patient Experience: Hassan's Journey Few stories illustrate the unpredictable nature of MS better than that of Hassan Nada, entrepreneur, journalist, and self-described "MS warrior." Hassan's first symptom appeared in 2018 when he suddenly lost vision in his right eye while on holiday in Egypt. "I woke up one day, and out of nowhere, my vision was blurry to the point where I thought I was blind," Hassan recalled. Despite seeing an ophthalmologist, his condition went undiagnosed as MS. His vision eventually returned after treatment with corticosteroids. Four years later, after moving to Luxembourg, Hassan experienced sciatic nerve pain and numbness in his lower body. His general practitioner recognized the connection between his previous episode of optic neuritis and his current symptoms, immediately suspecting MS. "She screamed at me and had me go to the ER right away," Hassan shared. After extensive testing, including MRIs, blood tests, and a spinal fluid sample, the diagnosis was confirmed: Hassan had multiple sclerosis. The emotional impact of this diagnosis was profound. "My life changed from that moment onwards, and I went into complete depression," he admitted. But through the unwavering support of his wife and access to modern treatments, Hassan has found ways to adapt and advocate for others with MS. Treatment Approaches: Managing an Incurable Condition While MS currently has no cure, Dr. Tayeb emphasized that it is treatable. "Notwithstanding the fact that MS is incurable, it is treatable," he stated. "The problem is that every patient is different. The trajectory of the progression, diseases, symptoms are different.” Disease-modifying therapies (DMTs) aim to slow the progression of MS by suppressing or modulating the immune system. These treatments vary widely in their administration methods (pills, injections, infusions) and side effect profiles. Hassan's treatment journey illustrates the often challenging process of finding the right approach. After being diagnosed, he was unable to receive his doctor's first-choice treatment due to having a virus that made it dangerous for him. He then tried a pill-based DMT that, despite its high success rate with other patients, didn't work for him. Finally, he found success with a monthly subcutaneous injection called Kesimpta. "Last week I went to the neurologist office depressed," Hassan shared. "I was like, 'I know it didn't work.' She's like, 'No, it actually worked. There are no new lesions. You can now make long-term plans in life.'" Innovative Approaches: The Brain's Virtual Gym Dr. Tayeb and Samaher Garbaya, co-founders of MyelinZ, are taking a different approach to MS management. Their "virtual gym for the brain" uses neurotechnology to promote neuroplasticity - the brain's ability to form new neural connections. "We're trying to promote neuroplasticity in the brain," Dr. Tayeb explained. Their platform uses games to stimulate specific brain regions while measuring brain activity. Using machine learning, they analyze six different digital biomarkers to create personalized brain exercises. This approach draws inspiration from research showing that activities like playing musical instruments or singing can activate certain brain areas, potentially slowing disease progression by strengthening neural pathways. The Role of Support: Community and Family Multiple speakers emphasized that MS affects not just the individual but their entire support network. Anne Leurs, who manages the Multiple Sclerosis Society in Luxembourg, noted that MS typically appears between ages 20-40 - a critical period when people are building careers, starting families, and establishing their adult lives. "It's a very difficult period, this period of diagnosis," Anne observed. "It's a chronicle disease. This means that you will have to live your life on with this disease.” Hassan's experience underscores the crucial role of support systems. "MS either breaks a couple or it makes them the strongest couple in the world," he remarked. When first diagnosed, he told his wife she should leave. "She's like, 'It's because I love you that I'm not leaving, and we're going to make it out of this stronger than ever.'" Five years later, she remains his "backbone," managing his appointments and ensuring he takes his medications. For those without close family support, community organizations like the Multiple Sclerosis Society provide vital resources, information, and connection. Complementary Approaches: The Mind-Body Connection Mariette Lentz, a Luxembourgish soprano who specializes in the Alexander Technique, offered insights into complementary approaches that can help manage MS symptoms and improve quality of life. The Alexander Technique is "a mental technique" focused on "exploring the relationship between our thoughts and our movement," Mariette explained. While not a therapy or cure, it offers tools to help reduce stress and bring the nervous system to a calmer state - particularly valuable for MS patients who often experience anxiety related to their unpredictable symptoms. This, naturally, is a method that can help us all. The Daily Reality Hassan painted a vivid picture of what daily life with MS can entail: "Imagine waking up every day of your life with the worst hangover in the world without having to drink.” Despite this challenge, he maintains a positive outlook and has channeled his experience into advocacy work, connecting with MS communities around the world. "I'm disclosing some personal parts of my life in hopes that it's actually going to benefit people," he explained. Looking Forward: Hope in Research and Community While MS remains incurable, advances in treatment options continue to improve outcomes for patients. From traditional DMTs to innovative approaches like brain-computer interfaces and neuroplasticity training, the landscape of MS management is evolving rapidly. As our conversation demonstrated, the combination of cutting-edge medical science, dedicated healthcare professionals, strong personal support systems, and community resources creates a foundation for living well despite MS. For those navigating the complex journey of MS - whether as patients, family members, or healthcare providers - knowledge and community remain powerful tools. By continuing to share stories like Hassan's and insights from experts like Dr. Tayeb, Samaher Garbaya, Anne Leurs, and Mariette Lentz, we can work toward greater understanding and better support for everyone affected by this challenging condition. https://myelinz.com https://www.msweb.lu/wp/

Trinity researchers have developed a new gamified mobile health (mHealth) app designed to help people with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) manage fatigue, one of the most common and debilitating symptoms of the disease. The research - led by Dr Guido Giunti, Adjunct Professor, School of Medicine, Trinity College Dublin and Associate Professor of Digital Health at the University of Oulu, Finland, and researchers from the University of Oulu and Oulu University Hospital - evaluated the feasibility, usability, and impact of the app, named, More Stamina over a 60-day period. The study, which highlights the potential of the app, is published in the journal Multiple Sclerosis and Related Disorders today. "Fatigue is an invisible but life-altering symptom of MS," said Dr. Guido Giunti, Adjunct Professor, School of Medicine, Trinity College Dublin and leader of the More Stamina project. "Managing it requires more than just medication. More Stamina gives people the tools to understand their energy levels, take control of their day, and communicate their needs more effectively." The study followed 20 participants from Oulu University Hospital in Finland, who used the app daily for two months. Key Findings Users became more aware of their fatigue patterns, enabling them to plan their days more effectively. Higher engagement correlated with increased self-awareness, particularly among those with more severe fatigue. The app helped facilitate discussions with family members and healthcare providers, improving mutual understanding of fatigue's impact. Usability improved over time, though some users found data entry cognitively demanding, indicating areas for refinement. An Evidence-Driven Digital Health Solution More Stamina helps users track their daily activities and energy expenditure using "Stamina Credits", a gamified approach that visualizes energy use and helps users make informed decisions about their daily plans. Unlike many digital health solutions, More Stamina stands out for its research-driven approach at every stage, from identifying patient needs to design, prototyping, development, and testing. Each phase has been accompanied by peer-reviewed research, creating a transparent scientific trail for a mobile health solution. Bringing Digital Health into MS Care Fatigue affects up to 80% of MS patients and has a profound impact on their quality of life. Managing fatigue is challenging, as it involves physical, cognitive, and emotional factors, often leaving patients feeling exhausted, misunderstood, and unsupported. While digital health solutions have been increasingly proposed to help manage chronic conditions like MS, few have been rigorously evaluated to ensure their effectiveness and real-world impact. Neurologists at Oulu University Hospital emphasize the potential of such solutions in complementing traditional MS care. While the study confirmed that More Stamina is a feasible and acceptable tool, researchers emphasize that larger and longer-term studies are needed to evaluate its full clinical impact. The team is now exploring ways to integrate More Stamina into broader MS care strategies. Professor Minna Isomursu, University of Oulu, said: "Digital health solutions are only as good as their foundation. We worked with real patients and healthcare professionals from the start to build something truly useful. That is key to creating tools that people actually find useful in their daily lives." Empowering Patients and Strengthening Family Dialogue One of the unexpected yet powerful outcomes of the study was the role More Stamina played in facilitating conversations between MS patients and their families. Many participants reported that sharing their fatigue patterns with loved ones helped them feel understood and supported. More Stamina's development was not just about technology, it was about people. Active participation from patient representatives was key to ensuring that the app addressed real-life challenges.

Introducing our latest Voice in the Scars of Gold campaign; the beautiful and loving human that is Emma P sharing her experience of Glioblastoma (brain cancer), MS and borderline ovarian tumour.Emma shares with Dr Liz her incredible experience of having multiple major health conditions one after another. After first being diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis (MS), when this went into remission Emma decided to explore fertility options to become a single mum by choice. These early investigations identified the early stages of ovarian cancer requiring her to have her ovary and tube to be removed. After several miscarriages, her second round of fertility treatment was successful and Alice was delighted to welcome her daughter to her world. After returning to work and beginning the new chapter of her life, Emma then began having daily migraines. After an MRI identified a large tumour, Emma needed major brain surgery to remove this and was found to have a very rare advanced stage 4 glioblastoma which carries a prognosis of 2 years. Emma explored all options including travelling abroad to trial new vaccines. Now living with stable scans more than 2 years after her craniotomy Emma shares how she lives at peace with her diagnosis and her love of her family and friends are helping her to keep focused on the here and now.Another incredible insight into how the reality of how health does not discriminate in age or that one person can experience multiple health conditions. Emma's experience shares how the power of control can still be found and that peace and joy can be found in any circumstances. Emma shares how the support of her local charity Victoria's Promise has been invaluable in her finding a place of strength and peace and is a charity we are proud to include a spotlight on during our campaign.Scars of Gold is a health awareness campaign sharing the voices of 100 women facing their mortality at a young age with life changing or incurable health conditions, led by Dr Liz Murray and photographer Sammy Weston.

Imagine that! Our Imagination May Be the Key to our Wellbeing Interview op: Shamanic energy healer Ofer Niv explains how heart-centered energy work engages our imagination to tap into the profound wisdom and healing potential within us all. Website: https://alchemicalflame.com/ Talk Points: Transformation unfolds from within. Directing our imaginations to see and feel ourselves as whole, radiant, and powerful is the first and most important step in healing ourselves. How to use our imagination in a way that will be helpful and to avoid self-sabotage. The difference between making and creating, delusion and illusion on the healing journey, and why it matters. Guided journeying is an effective tool that has been used by several cultures over the centuries to engage our imagination in accessing realms of consciousness beyond the physical, allowing us to transcend limiting beliefs, release trauma, and tap into the profound wisdom and healing potential within us.

Born and raised on a kibbutz in Israel, Ofer served as an Army Commander in the Israeli army and studied philosophy and math before moving to the US. He studied computer science at UCLA and then worked for more than 20 years as a Senior Manager in IT at Wells Fargo. Ofer began to explore alternative healing modalities after having been diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis diagnosis in 2011. As he saw his symptoms dissipating, he began to study energy healing with several masters, including Bonnie Serratore and Cyndi Dale. He eventually overcame his MS and now uses his personal experience and extensive training to guide others through profound healing. Through his practice, Alchemical Flame, Ofer helps clients navigate five mystical realms—heart, Shadow, Magical, Divine, and Unseen (Da'ath)—to unlock their innate healing potential, clear energetic blocks, and reconnect to their divine essence. His work goes beyond addressing symptoms and dives deep into the root causes to help clients reach a new level of wellness, empowerment, and spiritual growth.

Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is the most common cause of non-traumatic disability in people aged 18-65 years. As rehab professionals, we know that exercise is one of the mainstays of treatment for these clients. Though not definitively established, exercise has the most potential promise to be disease modifying if started early in the course of disease. But, alongside exercise there are other important interventions to consider like fatigue management and education. In today's article review, we will look at a massive overview of reviews (72 articles were included!). The article outlines the strength of the evidence being multiple types of rehab interventions. Then, next week we are excited to welcome to the podcast Sarah Adam, OTD, an occupational therapist with MS who has taken her pursuit of adaptive sports to an elite level—and recently earned Silver in wheelchair rugby at the 2024 Paralympic Games in Paris. Sarah was the first woman to ever play on Team USA's wheelchair rugby team, also made history as the first woman to score a point during an Olympic wheelchair rugby game. We clearly have so much to learn from Sarah that I know will inspire your OT practice.

Picture yourself living what seems like a regular life as a parent and entrepreneur, where everything seems uneventful and you have every reason to expect the rest of your life to follow a pretty straightforward path. You know, everything's FINE.Then, one day you go to pick up your kids from school and all of a sudden you're seeing double.Next thing you know, your life has been turned completely upside-down, your legs are numb and you're sitting in a wheelchair.In what version of reality could you picture yourself becoming an Olympic weightlifter just five years later?This is Kim Rahir's story of how Fine is a 4-Letter Word.Fortunately, she was raised with two values that would support her through her unexpected midlife journey – always be ready to show up and perform, and conscientiously show respect for people and take them as you find them.Along with these values, she became a person who did not wallow in self-pity or claim victimhood status. There was no asking “why me?” when faced with adversity.When she first started seeing double that day when she was 45 and picking her kids up from school, her doctor suggested she might be experiencing a cerebral hemorrhage and urged her to hail the next taxi to the hospital. After a long series of tests combined with the onset of additional health issues, it eventually became apparent she had Multiple Sclerosis (MS).Now wait – five years later she was at the gym training to become an Olympic-level weightlifter?As you're about to discover, her doctor discouraged her from doing it in a way that indicated he didn't want to be involved. She was told to take all sorts of injections that made her feel worse, and ultimately traded them in for some ibuprofen.

Matt considered himself a casual runner, completing one or two half-marathons a year. He was raising a family, advancing his career, and staying healthy. His outlook on life was that it was chugging along, and Matt was content. As far as he was concerned, he “had it all figured out.” However, as life often does, it threw Matt a tough curveball with what seemed like an unsolvable problem. His balance was off, he was constantly exhausted, his vision was blurry, and so on. After months of doctor appointments, ER visits, and no answers, Matt was left with a sense of bewilderment about the changes happening to him. After collapsing on a work trip and being rushed to the hospital by his work colleagues, he was finally diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) and told he would be wheelchair-bound within five years. Today, we'll hear about Matt's journey since the diagnosis, how he got back into running, and how he set his goals far beyond what he imagined before this life-altering news. This leads us to what's next. Starting June 15th, Matt is planning to run from Lincoln, Nebraska, to Casey, Iowa, in an effort to raise awareness and funds for MS Run the US. You can follow along with his journey here. Be sure to watch Inches to Miles on Tuesday, June 4th, at 8 pm EST here.Our ambassador applications are open from now until June 7th.

Thank you so much for tuning in today. I am interviewing a guest that we have previously had on The MSing Link podcast because she has such a powerful story, but also has something new up her sleeve that I just think the whole world should know about. I'm interviewing Julie Stamm. On today's episode, we talk about her book that normalizes differing abilities and amplifies how each of us can thrive in spite of challenges, and her newest creation, 52 Essential Inclusion Skills, which come in an inclusion deck. Julie Stamm was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) in 2007. Following her diagnosis, Julie made it her mission to educate, advocate, and support others battling chronic illnesses. She works tirelessly to help lessen the burden each patient has to bear. Her efforts have given her the opportunity to work with physicians, patients, and foundations across the Globe. After the birth of her son in 2016, Julie shifted her focus to supporting the children of parents with a chronic illness. Her children's book entitled “Some Days: A tale of love, ice cream, and my mom's chronic illness” was created to normalize differing abilities and amplify how each of us can thrive in spite of the challenges. In 2023, Julie co-created ‘52 Essential Inclusion Skills - An A to Z Guide to Kindness, Compassion, and Respect for Diverse Abilities' with Mind Brain Parenting's, Dr. Jenny Woo. The movement Julie has created has changed the apologetic tone and transformed the child and parent's experiences into uplifting stories that highlight the patient's resilience. Julie is committed to representing the underrepresented. Through her work, she has brought awareness and understanding to some of the many diverse abilities that can impact all of our lives, either directly or indirectly.

Physician Assistant and prior C&P examiner Leah Bucholz discusses What to Expect in a TMJ Veterans Disability C&P Exam.Leah discusses Multiple Sclerosis (MS) with Veterans Affairs (VA) disability. She explains that MS, an autoimmune disease affecting the central nervous system, can be linked to service-related factors, including exposure or symptoms that began during active duty. MS has various types, including Clinically Isolated Syndrome, Relapsing-Remitting MS, Primary Progressive MS, and Secondary Progressive MS, each with distinct characteristics and progression patterns. For VA disability, a current MS diagnosis, an in-service event, and a nexus linking the event to MS are essential. Leah highlights the VA's presumptive criteria, which considers MS diagnosed within seven years of service exit as service-connected if it's compensable to a 10% degree. She suggests that medical records can help establish a connection even if diagnosed later.
Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a neurological disease which can lead to loss of mobility and vision. Almost 3 million people worldwide are affected by it. There is no cure, but attempts are being made to accelerate the healing process with treatments to restore what the disease has damaged.At the same time, scientists have recently discovered a link between MS and a common virus that the majority of us carry in our bodies. It had been known for years that there was a link between Multiple Sclerosis and Epstein-Barr virus (EBV). But then, a study finally proved the link.Now, trials are underway on potential vaccines against EBV and scientists are hopeful that this could be a gateway to preventing MS. This week on the Inquiry we are asking: Are we close to a breakthrough for Multiple Sclerosis?Contributors:Tim Coetzee, Chief Advocacy, Services & Science Officer for the National MS Society, US Tjalf Ziemssen, Professor of Clinical Neuroscience and Head of the Multiple Sclerosis Center and Neuroimmunological Laboratory, University Clinic Carl-Gustav Carus, Germany Jeffrey Huang, Associate Professor of Biology, Georgetown University, US Claire Shannon-Lowe, Associate Professor in Virology, Institute of Immunology and Immunotherapy at the University of Birmingham, UKProduction team: Presenter: Tanya Beckett Producer: Matt Toulson Researcher: Ajai Singh Editor: Tara McDermott Studio Manager: Hal Haines Production Co-ordinator: Liam MorreyImage Credit: ShidlovskiGetty
