Navigating MS with Other Medical Conditions
Manage episode 407714748 series 2869252
Living with multiple sclerosis isn't just about managing the condition itself, but often involves navigating a myriad of additional health concerns known as comorbidities. Individuals with MS face a higher risk of experiencing new relapses when dealing with comorbidities like high cholesterol or depression. Furthermore, autoimmune diseases such as psoriasis and inflammatory bowel diseases like Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis are more prevalent among those with MS. There is even a heightened risk of bladder cancer.
Interaction of MS treatments and other common conditions like high blood pressure (hypertension), high cholesterol and diabetes are addressed. Experts share how immunotherapies used for other autoimmune diseases may benefit or actually worsen MS disease activity. Crucial information is shared on cancer treatment concerns in individuals with MS. Adopting healthy lifestyle behaviors is essential to minimize the development of these comorbidities.
Barry Singer MD, Director of The MS Center for Innovations in Care, interviews:
Ruth Ann Marrie MD PhD, Professor of Medicine and Community Health Sciences at University of Manitoba, Canada
Mark Cascione, MS neurologist, South Tampa MS Center, USA.
