Dr. Hunter’s podcast has been a lifesaver for me in terms of learning how to manage my OA. I’ve learned so much! But most important is the acceptance that success doesn’t come overnight, patience and determination are key. This is my #1 shared podcast. Thank you so much for sharing your expertise!
This has helped me understand and manage my osteoarthritis experience.
Dr. Virginia Kraus, a leading rheumatologist and researcher
She never said what biomarkers she is researching in a phase III clinical trial. Not much use without that. She did mention the panel is $250 and I realize it isn’t commercially available, but what is she researching?! I did an internet search and followed the study links, but they are talking about different things. Is it HDL, LPS from bacteria? Details are important.
I’ve gained so much from listening to this podcast . As an orthopaedic surgeon it’s given me different insights into managing patients with knee OA…I share with all my trainees to get us thinking more . Thanks
I was told that I have severe OA. I found angry@arhritis online. It is a very good podcast. Your podcast was discussed so I subscribed. I had so much run around with GPs for multiple years and got nowhere for my leg/hip/groin pain. Saw a PA. She got me x-rayed and by that time it showed severe OA. Thank you for this podcast for making me feel that i am not alone being in chronic pain and hopefully with science, help will come.
