Warrior: Anthony Ramirez

HSCT: December 12, 2016
Superpower: resilience
To what extent do you appreciate the journey? What version of yourself do you present to the world?
After a concussion landed Anthony in the ER, his diagnosis of multiple sclerosis was not easy to understand, especially when the disease-modifying drugs did not work like other medications. As he dove into research to try to find more answers, he and his mom Cindi (see Episode 107) happened upon a brief mention of Dr. Burt’s research at Northwestern University and committed to learn everything possible about the latest treatments.

How do you know what to expect? From whom do you seek feedback? How do you decide to take the next step?
Diagnosed just after college at the young age of 25 when he experienced double vision and a variety of doctors had a hard time understanding what was going on, Matt was diagnosed after a MRI revealed a lesion on his brain stem. As he pondered what was next, despite feeling as though life was ending when it should be only just beginning, Matt spent time researching his options for treatment before aging out of insurance coverage.
Tune in to learn more about Matt’s research efforts, his natural approach to managing MS for thirteen years before HSCT, and how he fared during his time in Puebla at Clinica Ruiz.
