About this episode
Imagine being diagnosed with a chronic illness at a time when there are no disease modifying drugs available.
On this epsiode of Free Thinking, Montel talks with Ed Tobias, author of The Multiple Sclerosis Toolbox; Tools &Tips for Living with MS. Ed was 32 years old when he was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis 42 years ago. At that time there were no disease-modifying drugs for MS, and MRI’s were just coming on the scene for diagnostics. Despite little information available at the time on living with MS, he was determined to carry on with his life and not let MS get in his way. Ed wrote this book to help guide the newly diagnosed and their loved ones down this path. As Montel often says, “I have MS but MS doesn’t have me!”
