Many patients with neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder may experience relapses, but not everyone will experience them in the same way. Our host, Debbie Leticq talks to neurologist Dr. Lesley-Ann Hall to help understand the nature of relapse and recovery in NMOSD.
Neurologist Dr. Lesley-Ann Hall discusses the importance of early recognition, confirming that it is a true relapse with your GP or neurologist early in order to help limit long-term damage.
Dr. Hall explains what is meant by a multidisciplinary team approach, which looks not only at treating the inflammation which occurs with NMOSD, but also at treating the person as a whole; for example, when managing coexisting complications.
