Health & Fitness:Alternative Health

Over the past four decades, Debbie Petrina has lived with MS and spoken to thousands of people in the MS community - via social media, as a trained peer counselor, and as a participant in numerous MS-related events.
She is the author of "Managing MS: A Roadmap to Navigate MS", a practical, easy-to-read handbook about understanding and managing MS. Informative and inspiring, it offers guidance and tips on a wide array of topics, including symptoms, people management, and long-term disability. The book is written for anyone who is interested in learning about MS and managing it effectively.
With a newly-edited and expanded second edition, Debbie is here to talk about her MS journey, her long history of advocacy, and what is inside this amazing resource!
