Episode 59 - Medical Injustice in MS Care Part One

from Move It or Lose it - The Podcast · host Kathy Chester

For some reason, MS is considered a white person's disease. So I wanted to find out how that might affect the diagnostic process - and treatment options - for MSers of color. For the first part of this short series, I spoke to comedian Rosani Christy, Dr. Folake Taylor, and MS advocates Dawn Morgan and Damian Washington. We talked about their own diagnosis stories, the effect of the pandemic and Black Lives Matter, what it’s like for them to have a chronic illness, and some things many people just don’t get!I wanted to understand more and give a voice to some people that deserve to share, and it was an enlightening and beautiful conversation.  Links and resources:Connect with my guests: Rosani Christy, Dawn Morgan, Dr. Folake Taylor, Damian WashingtonFind out more about my new DMAT Fitness Training programYou can find Kathy Chester [email protected] [email protected] Instagram - @msmoveitorloseit @disruptfitnessgymHere are some additional products that help Kathy deal with beating the Heat and Migraines.  Take advantage of the coupon code.Koldtec - Cool Head WrapKOLD10To save $10 off every item in-store.2 items = $20 savings3 items = $30 savingshttps://www.koldtec.com/ Cold bean bag Releafpack. 15% discount use code Disrupt15https://www.releafpack.com
