Listen Later

Host: Jennifer Caudle, DO
Guest: Riley Bove, MD
Guest: Bianca Weinstock-Guttman, MD

The disease course of multiple sclerosis (MS) can take many paths based on numerous factors, including age at diagnosis, gender, and MS subtype. Layered upon the typical MS management challenges are those that can occur with the physical and physiological changes of the normal aging process. How might the care of a patient with MS need to be modified as they age?

In this discussion, Dr. Bove and Dr. Weinstock-Guttman will review:

  • The effects that aging may have on patients with MS
  • The interplay between menopause and MS
  • How aging may affect the approach to disease management
