MS Diagnosis Journey

In the chronic disease arena, most everyone is more than willing to share their story for their own benefit and that of others. At the core of each story is the diagnosis. Everyone has a story to tell, and every storyteller needs an audience. We invite you to join us for the Multiple Sclerosis Diagnosis Journey podcast and listen to these unique stories. There's much to learn from each other by listening to these stories of diagnosis. By sharing their experiences with others, the MS Diagnosis journey podcast will serve as a vehicle for healing and empowerment for the storyteller. Support of this project is made possible through the generosity of Janssen Pharmaceutical Companies of Johnson & Johnson.

MS Diagnosis Journey

Kyle Warendorf: Joining the Dots

September 15, 2022 • Laura Kolaczkowski • Episode 26

Though he was aware of MS while growing up, it took a number of neurologists before Kyle Warendorf was able to connect the dots of his medical history. He was finally diagnosed with MS in 2011, but by trawling through his medical archeology he was able to recognize early indications going back 30 years.

In this interview, Kyle talks about his symptoms and the relief he felt when he was finally diagnosed. And even though he says the relationship you have with your neurologist is like a marriage, he has a message for people who are at the start of their own diagnosis journey: "Don't be afraid to be the squeaky wheel."
