In this episode, I explore the manifestations and management of multiple sclerosis.
I use powerful patient memoirs, such as that of Ann Romney, to illustrate the diversity of presentations and variants of this ubiquitous and devastating neuroinflammatory brain disease.
I also trace the history of multiple sclerosis with references to Lidwina, the patron saint of figure skaters.
I also narrate the role played by French neurologist Jean -Martin Charcot in defining the disorder, starting with his observations of his own maid.
I also explore the risk factors, investigations, and increasing range of treatments now available for the disease, and I illustrate these with such fascinating illness memoirs as those of Meredith O'Brien titled Uncomfortably Numb, of John Laverton titled In the Game, and of physician Lisa Doggett titled Up the Down Escalator.
