Multiple Sclerosis Vlog:Making Invisible Symptoms Visible in Clinic

Thank you for making Mondays brighter with your videos🌞! Great topic and very helpful video. Have a great day🙋‍♀️

Only a short time ago I have finally uncovered the reason, why my doctors usually cannot see diverse MS-trouble of mine: my brain+body is doing a lot better until 1 pm, before the fatigue rises and brings along some symptom(s); but my MS-doctor appointments are always around 10 am, when I even have enough energy to be funny.

Dr. Arron, Thank you for always listening to your patients. I had a situation where I kept feeling like crap, had a exam and Neurology could not find anything. Another Dr ran a blood test for something different and found my answer. My B-12 was so low. My Neurologist forgot to run. Once detected I had a return visit. I asked should I have come originally for the Issue at hand. The answer was Yes. Now my Neurologist runs B-13 on everyone, no matter what. Neurology are Human and sometimes forget.

Weakness is a tricky one, because sometimes it's not you are weak to the point that it's shows in the exam, it's that you're weaker. Doctors don't notice it because they don't know how strong you were before, but you certainly do, because you have to put more effort to do the same.

Once again I must applaud you Dr Boster. Ty for continuing to make videos that explain your approach with MS. I must also ty for taking the time to explain things to me off hours. You have no idea what that means to me. So again thank you for all you do.

You articulate such empathetic understanding, and maintain current knowledge for your grateful MS community. Thank you, Dr B. Chickens are looking good. Well done for maintaining their happy lives as well.

:) Nice chickens. It is surprisingly frequent how the exam does not necessarily correlate with what people are feeling inside. I remember once I picked up on a routine MS follow up exam that a patient had 20/200 vision in the right eye, a right relative afferent pupillary defect, and papilledema. No joke. She was in the midst of optic neuritis and didn't have pain, and she didn't even notice she had vision loss (left eye was 20/20). I wonder how many of things I have missed in my career

Aaron Congratulations on being voted the "Top Doc" in MS again in Columbus Ohio's Columbus Monthly magazine. Your patients at The Boster Center for MS are fortunate to have you"

Hey Dr. B - Please clean the gutters on that building behind you :-) Having the gutters so full that plants are growing is super bad for the structure and it is such a nice backdrop. Signed - person who edits engineering reports about what is wrong with structures :-)

Powerful intro, love it! Thank you for sharing your support and knowledge, as always 🙏🏼💝 Chickens haha so cool 😂🤣

Thanks, Dr. Boster! Love your chickens. We used to have THE sweetest and friendliest rooster back in my old house. But I miss walking River with you! <3 Hope she's doing well. I'm a new subscriber, and this is only my second video of yours. Looking forward to checking out more.

Fun! Interesting video and cool chickens

I had a similar problem a few weeks ago. I couldn't make much effort walking and getting upstairs because my left leg would stop working well, but the clinic exploration was totally normal, so we decided not to use steroids. The neurologist thinks that it was a relapse that started quickly to resolve but we are cheking at a MRI. I got afraid because it was the first time I experienced motor problems since my diagnosis 5 years ago and it really felt like I had lost the abbility to move on my own.

Gm Doc, Release the Kraken (chickens I mean)..lol..too funny, I just wanted to again thank you for your videos they are, by far, the best show in town!!

I love your chickens! I have a back yard flock of my own.

Another great video and explanation! ❤️ 🐓... I could watch’um all day long.

Hallo Aaron, thanks again for this video! The topic is so important to be talked about. There is still a kind of a barrier between patients and doctors. There's no real opening up on really important topics like sexual ysfunction, bladder and bowel issues and so on. Some very intimate things that most people better hide in their homes and suffer for years. When I started to see my neurologist periodically I wrote down everything that could possibly be interesting for her to know to get a better look on my situation. What are 20 minutes every 3 months? nothing. So I want her to know the good days AND the bad ones as well. MRIs and other clinical possibilities to visualize symptoms cannot replace the subjective feeling and experience of the patients. Thanks, as always, for taking time and teach us, Aaron! And I love your chicken! Take care and please stay healthy! best regards from Germany, Britta

I definitely have been feeling like I've been getting a lot worse over the last couple of years. Thanks for the great videos!

Thank you so much for your videos! I love your chickens! I am a homesteader w/chickens and rabbits. I also have Muscovy ducks. We have also had a pig that is now in the freezer and another that will be in the freezer this fall.

Thank you for this. I have this issue at times where I try to tell my dr what I’m feeling and it doesn’t show outwardly where my wife can see it or my dr can see it. My dr is really good at trying to get to the bottom of it though and helping me with that particular issue.
