Knowing which MS changes are significant enough to warrant speaking up can be hard. Relapses can occur every 1-2 years without treatment, but much less frequently on disease-modifying treatment. Distinguishing between an actual relapse, a pseudorelapse or just brief worsening of symptoms (Uhthoff's phenomenon) explained. Options for relapses such as steroids, plasmapheresis and ACTH are reviewed. Importance of MRI monitoring addressed since most new MS lesions pop up on MRI scans without actual symptoms. Slow progression of disability can be challenging to detect. Physical changes can include slower walking, worsening balance and more hand coordination problems. Cognitive worsening may be noticeable due to short-term memory loss, word-finding issues and multitasking challenges. Tools to improve monitoring for disease progression highlighted such as in-office testing, remote electronic monitoring and biomarker blood testing. Why multiple sclerosis disability can worsen without MRI change explained. Ways to better advocate for prompt care of worsening MS shared. Barry Singer MD, Director of The MS Center for Innovations in Care, interviews Jacqueline Nicholas MD, System Chief of Neuroimmunology & Multiple Sclerosis at the OhioHealth Multiple Sclerosis Center and James Bowen MD, Medical Director of the Multiple Sclerosis Center at Swedish Neuroscience Institute in Seattle.

My first day in the hospital was filled with MRIs and CT Scans. Okay that a little exaggeration, there was only one MRI and 2 CT scans. Still, they were unpleasant. Plus, they're expensive, and you have to go elsewhere in the hospital. It turns out there's another option, that many neurologists don't even know about. It's called Transcranial Doppler Ultrasound, and it gives the medical team information the other scans don't. Plus, it involves no radiation or special rooms. It doesn't replace the other scans altogether, but give the doctors another tool for treating stroke patients. This week, I talk with Dr, Aaron Stayman from Swedish Medical Center. Dr. Stayman is an advocate for and expert in Transcranial Doppler Ultrasound. This week, we learn about his background, talk about aphasia, and spent the bulk of our time talking about Transcranial Doppler Ultrasound. We explore what it is, how it works, and how it benefits patients. Aaron cites 5  benefits of Transcranial Doppler Ultrasound It's cheaper There's no radiation It's portable It's repeatable There are no issues related to magnets   Here's a short look at what the doctor sees in a scan: [embed]https://youtu.be/Z7L3f2hGGjQ[/embed] Bio Dr. Aaron Stayman attended medical school at Tufts University in Boston, MA.  He completed an internship in internal medicine and a neurology residency at Vanderbilt Medical Center in Nashville, TN.  During his vascular neurology fellowship at Emory University in Atlanta, GA, he received specific training in the performance and interpretation of carotid and transcranial ultrasound.  He is currently a neurohospitalist at Swedish Medical Center and Medical Director of the Swedish Cerebrovascular Ultrasound Laboratory.

My GF rightly pointed out that I will need to figure out how to drain the hot water from the pasta with one hand without spilling it and the water all over myself and the kitchen floor. Before we completed this problem solving, she went ahead and made it because she's awesome like that. Later on, I stumbled across a strategy on Twitter. Put a colander or wire strainer that you can lift with one hand. Fill the pot with water, and add the pasta to the strainer before cooking it. Then boil or whatever, and when it's done, just lift out the strainer with the pasta and leave the water behind. You know, basically the way the make French fries at McDonalds. I have different sized ones for different pans. And a less open one for peas!!!

Balamuthia mandrillarisis a free-living ameba that can cause a serious encephalitis infection of the brain. It is thought to enter the body when soil containing Balamuthia comes in contact with skin wounds and cuts, or when dust containing Balamuthia is breathed in or gets in the mouth. More than 200 cases of Balamuthia infection have been diagnosed worldwide and according to a recent Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) study, there has been 109 case reports of Balamuthia disease between 1974 and 2016 in the US. A unique Balamuthia case reported in a manuscript to be published in the journal, International Journal of Infectious Diseases documents a case of the parasitic infection linked to nasal irrigation. Joining me of the show is senior author of the report, Charles Cobbs, MD. Dr Cobbs is the director of the Ivy Center for Advanced Brain Tumor Treatment at the Swedish Neuroscience Institute in Seattle.

Dr. David Hanscom is a leading orthopedic spine surgeon at the Swedish Neuroscience Institute in Seattle, WA. Though he believes that surgery and medication have a role, he knows that these standard courses of treatment aren’t what’s needed to treat chronic pain. Instead he provides the framework so the patient can find his or her solution allowing them to live free of pain, forever. His method, which transforms all kinds of pain, including back, neck, arthritis, fibromyalgia, and migraines, is explained in BACK IN CONTROL A Surgeon’s Roadmap Out of Chronic Pain.
