Speaking of Alzheimer's

Receiving Alzheimer's Treatment: A Patient's Perspective


Listen Later

On today’s episode, we continue our conversation about Alzheimer’s treatments—this time, from a patient’s perspective. Tracey Collins from Portland, ME, joins us to share her journey, from the moment of diagnosis to navigating treatment options and receiving Leqembi. She opens up about what the treatment process is like, her hopes for the future, and even how she’s found a unique way to reframe her infusions—seeing them as a “spa day.”
