あらすじ・解説
To what extent are you able to eliminate stress from your life? Do you believe you can achieve whatever you put your mind to? To what extent are you aware of treatment options? Despite noticing some symptoms that interfered with walking and mobility, Janet postponed seeing doctors until after she retired from being a police officer. While Janet did not find her career to be stressful, she did experience intense stress in her relationships and personal life. Once Janet came down with bouts of hives caused by intense, long-sustained stress, she began taking steps to reduce and eliminate stress from her life. Over time, Janet experienced other stressors and symptoms (like foot drop and optic neuritis) that she was able to explain away at the time they occurred, but upon reflection, realized they were all related to her eventual diagnosis of multiple sclerosis in March of 2020. Tune in to learn more about how Janet explored options for HSCT in the US and Mexico, prepared her body physically for HSCT, developed strong feelings about accessibility to HSCT, found motivation to write a book about her experience and help others, and ended up having a complete reversal of symptoms.
