Here we will hear real people, Australians and occasionally others round the world speaking on Multiple Sclerosis (MS). — This podcast began with Colleen’s hope of building greater understanding of what is involved in the HSCT procedure, through the sharing of stories of Australian people living with MS who had undergone HSCT. That initial focus will expand to include discussions on a variety of issues relevant to Australians living with MS, such as symptoms, medications, and therapies. Through sharing we support one another, reduce the isolation of living with Multiple Sclerosis, and foster a sense of community while raising awareness of the impact of this progressive disease on those living with it. The beginning series focuses on the choice of Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant (HSCT) – the variety of challenges faced, and individual outcomes of that procedure. MSMS: The Many Stories of Multiple Sclerosis podcast’s first episode follows your host Colleen and her husband Kel’s unique journey through HSCT, a choice Colleen made when she found herself rapidly losing the ability to walk. Married just over five years, Colleen and Kel travelled to Moscow Russia on a mission to stop the progress of Colleen’s MS. You’ll hear of the unexpected obstacles they faced, one after the other, Colleen as patient and Kel her champion. Disclaimer: This podcast is not intended to replace professional medical advice. Content Warning: Multiple Sclerosis is an unpredictable condition and the conversations and stories will contain reference to MS symptoms as well as situations experienced before, during or after HSCT – some of which may be disturbing or upsetting for some.
