Episode 257: Dating With MS with Alaya McKinney and Akeem McMichael

Dating can be tricky for anyone. And it doesn't get any easier if you happen to be living with MS. In addition to all the typical dating considerations, you also have to think about things like if, how, and when to disclose your MS. You want to make sure your dating activities are physically doable. That might mean no long walks on the beach when the temperature is soaring. It might mean no hikes up steep mountain trails. And it might even mean having to postpone your date because your symptoms are acting up. But like so many other things in life, with a little planning and adaptation, a person living with MS can enjoy a fulfilling dating life. I'm devoting this entire episode of RealTalk MS to a conversation about dating with MS.  Alaya McKinney and Akeem McMichael, two millennials who are each out there in the dating world, join me to share their real-world experiences and strategies for dating while living with MS.  We have a lot to talk about!
