Okay, who's ready for some updates about Multiple Sclerosis? I know I am...
From April 21 - April 28, I will be covering the 64th Annual American Academy of Neurology Meeting in New Orleans, LA!
This time not only is my husband coming along to help out, but so is Omi (OmzOP/Omzone) from the Chat Rooms in MSWorld!
We will be recording Dr. Kantor, along with other Doctors, at the AAN meeting! All coverage will be posted in MSWorld's Conference Center: https://conferencecenter.msworld.org/american-academy-of-neurology-2012-annual-meeting
So if you are in the area, you should check out the meeting. This time, I will be interacting with everyone like I did for ECTRIMS (https://conferencecenter.msworld.org/ectrims-2011/ashley-in-amsterdam) But this time I really want to get as many people involved as I can. I want everyone to submit their questions to me in my blog in the "comments" area... I will then take your questions and try and get some doctors to answer these questions!
Now, just letting you know.... this meeting isn't specifically focused on MS, like ECTRIMS was. This is everything neurology, but there is still a lot of things to be covered when it does come to MS.
So here is how it's all going to work.... Omi, my husband and I will record Dr. Kantor speaking about the meeting and interviewing other doctors about MS topics covered during the meeting. I will then upload my recordings and send them to the MSWorld Production Office, which is now in Idaho.
Lisa (Lolli_pOP) will be taking the videos and upload them to the Conference Center for everyone to view. Make sure to check back to the Conference Center every day, also, we will be posting updates and notifying everyone when a new video is uploaded onto our Conference Center on MSWorld's Facebook Page and Twitter Page!
I am very grateful for this opportunity to be able to cover these meetings on behalf of MSWorld.

Thanks,
Ashley Ringstaff

ReplyDeleteHi Ashley. Could you please find out if there is anything on the horizon for people with Primary Progressive MS? Thanks from Missouri!
ReplyDeleteAshley -
ReplyDeletePlease ask about MS that has been stable (with only slight imbalance) after 15 years on Avonex. Dr wants to switch meds just because he feels the new meds are better.

Ashley,
ReplyDeletePlease ask about any new treatments for stabilizing vision problems, and for vertigo and dizziness...
Thanks. Those were my presenting symptoms when I was diagnosed 29 years ago.
