Sponsored: Share Your Story and Help Raise Awareness for MMN
By argenx
Living with multifocal motor neuropathy (MMN) can be a challenge. Everyone’s MMN journey is different—from diagnosis to symptoms to finding the right treatment for you. But did you know that by sharing your journey, you can help others living with MMN?
Everyone living with MMN is unique
MMN symptoms can affect the things that are most important to you, and that can look a little different from person to person. For this person living with MMN, the everyday challenges have been especially hard:
“It started with fasciculations, and then my muscles weakened. Eventually, typing was difficult, and sometimes I couldn’t even button up my shirt.”
And it’s not just the everyday tasks that are challenging. For some people, MMN symptoms make it hard to keep up with the lifestyle they’re used to—like traveling and participating in family activities:
“I have neuropathy. I’m living with the numbness and tingling in my feet and up my legs. I have children. I have grandkids. I even have great-grands that I interact with. I travel a lot—I have homes in 2 states—and I’m used to going from place to place. The neuropathy holds me back. It pulls me down.”
MMN symptoms can affect the little things in life as well as the big things, but symptoms aren’t the only challenge. For this person living with MMN, even finding information about the disease has been tough:
“I was recently diagnosed with MMN, and I don’t know anything about it. I looked it up online, but I still feel like I’m in the dark.”
Sharing your MMN story can help change that. Your unique journey can help raise awareness about the challenges of life with MMN and help others living with MMN feel understood. You’ll also be helping argenx create better support programs and resources for the MMN community.
