Neuro-immunology nurse specialist and research fellow, Dr. Therese Burke joins Debbie to discuss diagnosis and how to take back control. They discuss the need to trust your instincts if you feel you’re not getting the right answers.
Dr. Therese Burke shares her experience of working with NMOSD patients, many of whom would tell her that deep down they just knew something wasn't right, and they continued to seek help until they found the help that they needed.
For those who are diagnosed, there is so much happening in such a short period of time, Dr. Therese Burke and Debbie discuss taking one step at a time and harnessing the power of your support network, whatever that may look like for you.
