Welcome to season 6 of Hope for the Agora Podcast.Karen Kleine Deters shares her story of journeying with FND -- Functional Neurologic Disorder.Functional neurologic disorder (FND) refers to a neurological condition caused by changes in how brain networks work, rather than changes in the structure of the brain itself, as seen in many other neurological disorders. Physical symptoms of FND are genuine but cannot be explained by changes in the brain structure. The exact cause of FND is unknown.Resources:National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS).

What is Mitochondrial Myopathy? my·op·a·thy mīˈäpəTHē/ The word “myopathy” means disease of the muscle tissue. As the term implies, mitochondrial myopathy (MM) is a neuromuscular disease caused by damage to the mitochondria. Many patients with mitochondrial disease have a mitochondrial myopathy, either as their sole diagnosis or as an additional, descriptive co-diagnosis as part of their mitochondrial disorder. Mitochondrial myopathy may be present in adults and children, and may occur with or without a genetic mitochondrial disease diagnosis. Further, several clinical trials are currently examining the impact of various therapies or potential treatments for people with mitochondrial myopathy. Join us this month on Friday, November 20th at 12 pm EST with Dr. Bruce Cohen, Director of Pediatric Neurology and then the Director of the NeuroDevelopmental Science Center at Akron Children’s Hospital. Dr. Cohen is well-known and highly respected as an expert author, speaker, clinician and research investigator in mitochondrial disorders. Topics for this important discussion include: What is mitochondrial myopathy? How is it diagnosed? Are there treatments for mitochondrial myopathy? Other management strategies? What are the most common symptoms of mitochondrial myopathy? Who typically is diagnosed with mitochondrial myopathy? About The Speaker Dr. Bruce H. Cohen attended college at Washington University in St. Louis and a BA in chemistry, graduating summa cum laude in 1978. He received his medical degree from the Albert Einstein College of Medicine in Bronx, N.Y. in 1982 and went on to his pediatric residency at the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, followed by a residency in neurology at Columbia Presbyterian Medical Center in New York. He then obtained a two-year American Cancer Society fellowship in neuro-oncology at the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia. In 1989 Dr. Cohen joined the Cleveland Clinic’s department of Neurology, and served as chief of Pediatric Neurology from 1999-2002, with joint appointments in the Clinic’s Taussig Cancer Center, the Eepartment of Neurosurgery and the department of Pediatrics. In 2011, he joined Akron Children’s Hospital in Akron, Ohio, as Director of Pediatric Neurology and then the Director of the NeuroDevelopmental Science Center. He serves in many leadership roles within Akron Children’s Hospital. His specialty interests include adult and pediatric neuro-oncology, mitochondrial medicine, neurofibromatosis, neurometabolic diseases and pediatric neurology. He has served on a number of committees for the Children’s Oncology Group, the American Academy of Neurology (AAN), the Child Neurology Society.

In this episode, we explore disease modifying therapies (DMT’s) a little more as well as discuss reliable resources of information such as the National Multiple Sclerosis Society (NMSS) and the American Academy of Neurology (AAN). We also discuss an article, “New MS treatment guidelines” from the NMSS’ quarterly publication, Momentum. The guidelines from the AAN referenced in the article and podcast, are under the Clinician Summary box. And finally, there is a list of medications provided by the NMSS to "Modify the disease course" that is a great reference as well.

The American Academy of Neurology (AAN) is holding its Annual Meeting this week in Los Angeles. And with more than 10,000 neurologists all in one place, we're talking about a LOT of news coming out of that conference.   Just some of the topics we're talking about on this week's podcast: The AAN announced new guidelines for treating MS. A new study will convince you to begin MS disease-modifying therapy sooner, rather than later. The National MS Society has announced $14.2 million dollars in funding for 45 new research projects aimed at slowing, stopping, and ending MS. Genentech announced some good news for MS patients taking Ocrevus. Biogen announced the results of several MS research studies. Computer-based cognitive training can improve memory for people living with MS. My guest on the podcast is 3-time Stanley Cup winner and and star of the National Hockey League's Chicago Blackhawks, Bryan Bickell. Bryan retired from hockey last year, after being diagnosed with MS. We'll talk with Bryan about what it was like to get that diagnosis, what it was like to score that very memorable final goal of his career, and what lies ahead for him. (NOTE: During our conversation, Bryan references a website, "My Fighting Hockey Story". The correct website is MyFightingStory.com.
