  • This Innovative Option for Diabetic Patients Controls Debilitating Pain
    Nov 4 2022
    November is National Diabetes Month, a time when communities across the country come together to raise awareness and discuss detection and management of this prevalent disease. Some people with diabetes also suffer from painful diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN), a deliberating and progressive neurological disorder that affects approximately 30% of the diabetes patient population. I spoke with Dr. Silky Patel, an interventional spine, sports and pain management physician in Houston, to discuss the impact of DPN and the latest innovative way to treat the condition. Joining her was Ms. Farrah Stewart, a patient of Dr. Patel’s with painful DPN and a spinal cord stimulator, to share her experience and the impact spinal cord stimulation has made in her life. #Diabetes #diabetescare #NationalDiabetesMonth #Health *Please subscribe and rate our show!

  • U.S. Air Force Veteran Shares His Story of Living with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS)
    Nov 1 2022
    Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) – also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease – is a rapidly progressive, neurodegenerative disease.1 Those living with ALS eventually lose their ability to walk, dress, write, speak, swallow and eat.1 ALS can affect people of all races and ethnic backgrounds, but did you know that Veterans are twice as likely to develop ALS than those who haven’t served in the military? This Veterans Day, we honor those who have served in the U.S. armed forces and thank them for the sacrifices they’ve made to protect our country. I had the extreme honor of speaking with Juan Reyes, a U.S. Air Force Veteran living with ALS and a MTPA Patient Ambassador, to share his story of living with ALS, discuss how he’s helping to spread awareness of this devastating disease among Veterans, and how others living with the disease can help support the ALS community. Along with his wife of 33 years, Meg.
