'Grey's Anatomy' star Chandra Wilson opens up about her … – ABC News

Posted: Published on March 31st, 2017

Actress Chandra Wilson, who plays a doctor on ABC's long-running hit drama "Grey's Anatomy," opened up about her family's real-life medical saga in an interview with "Good Morning America" that aired today. Wilson, who has played Dr. Miranda Bailey on "Grey's Anatomy" for the past 13 seasons, described the uncertainty and fear she faced when her daughter, Sarina McFarlane, 23, first became ill as a teenager. The Emmy-nominated actress said her daughter became afflicted with nausea, vomiting and crippling abdominal pain. McFarlane's mysterious illness baffled doctors, and Wilson said they went nearly 10 months before she finally got a diagnosis -- cyclic vomiting syndrome, or CVS, a neurological disorder characterized by a series of prolonged attacks of severe nausea and vomiting, with no apparent cause. "It presented itself like a real bad case of food poisoning," Wilson explained. "It didn't go away for four or five days so because of that we went to the ER." Wilson said emergency room doctors hydrated her daughter but none of the tests showed it was anything different. "A month later, the exact same presentation happened and this was month after month after month for 10 months," she said. Wilson kept a running log … Continue reading

EDT March 30, 2017 Croiffee Croiffee (Photo: 13News Now) NORFOLK, Va. (WVEC) -- Cerebral palsy affects thousands of people each year. March marks Cerebral Palsy Awareness Month. One Norfolk family is trying to create awareness and acceptance with a video getting thousands of online views. Patrick and Chanita Croiffee are proud parents of Caleb and Carter. Caleb, who is almost 2, was born early and didn't get enough oxygen. Doctors would later diagnose him with cerebral palsy. "The first sign was that he had a seizure, which was not typical to happen right after a birth, obviously," said Chanita. "It was a trying time, but one thing about it, we fought through it, and we prayed throughout the whole situation," said Patrick. Caleb sees doctors and therapists to help with his developmental process. The disorder can impact muscle control, speech and intellect. "I don't count him out, there. He's definitely aware, he definitely knows us, he knows his sister," said Chanita. "He spends time in his stander, and that strengthens his … Continue reading

ASK THE IU HEALTH EXPERT – Heads up: Must-know info about traumatic brain injuries – Indianapolis Recorder

Posted: Published on March 31st, 2017

March is Brain Injury Awareness Month, and there are several important things to keep in mind when it comes to treating and recovering from serious brain injuries. What is a traumatic brain injury (TBI)? Any injury that affects the function or structure of the brain is a traumatic brain injury (TBI). They range in severity from a very mild short-term alteration of consciousness to a devastating loss of function and even death. How does a traumatic brain injury affect the brain and body? What changes might someone experience as the result of a TBI? The overall effects of a traumatic brain injury are very dependent on the severity of the injury. Headache, nausea and sensitivity to light and sound are common with concussion, which is a mild TBI. More severe injuries can cause paralysis, speech problems, prolonged coma and instability of cardiopulmonary functions. Is TBI treatable? If so, what are some of the best treatments for TBI? Yes, TBI is treatable. Specific treatments also very much depend on the severity of the injury. In the immediate aftermath of a severe TBI, treatment is focused on prevention of swelling and preventing early complications of the brain injury and the state of … Continue reading

Those living with MS excited about new drug, Ocrevus – WEAU

Posted: Published on March 31st, 2017

EAU CLAIRE, Wis. (WEAU)-- Sally Pathos has lived with primary progressive Multiple Sclerosis for the past 30 years. My symptoms don't go away anymore. They just continue to slowly worsen. When I was first diagnosed, there really weren't any drugs out there. It was kind of a scary disease. A progressive neurological disease without a cure and it still doesn't have a cure but now there are so many drugs that slow the progression down, says Pathos. But a new drug just approved by the FDA may change the way people with MS live. Ocrevus, approved Wednesday is the first treatment for primary progressive MS, which is the most aggressive type of the disease. I immediately called Dr. More's office and said, "Ok this is approved, I want to start tomorrow," tongue and cheek knowing that there's a lot of steps. Steps pathos is excited to take, in hopes of reversing the stages of MS, a treatment that has never been available before. We've had no treatments that have been proven to help and this is the first treatment that has the ability to delay progression so it's a very exciting thing, says Marshfield Clinic Neurologist Roland More who explains, … Continue reading

New research finds novel method for generating airway cells from stem cells – Medical Xpress

Posted: Published on March 31st, 2017

March 30, 2017 Researchers have developed a new approach for growing and studying cells they hope one day will lead to curing lung diseases such as cystic fibrosis through "personalized medicine." Researchers at the Center for Regenerative Medicine (CReM) at Boston University School of Medicine (BUSM) and Boston Medical Center (BMC) have discovered that one particular signaling pathway, Wnt, helps direct lung development. A signaling pathway is how developing cells get instruction on what types of cell to become, such as a liver cell, a skin cell, a brain cell, etc. Using this finding, researchers implemented a new way to use stem cells made from any individual, including cells from patients with cystic fibrosis, and turn them into airway cells, which they then grew into three-dimensional spheres. These airway spheres now can be used to study cystic fibrosis disease activity using a specific test called a swelling assay. "Because airway spheres from a patient with cystic fibrosis do not swell in our assay but airway spheres from a healthy person do, we can see whether adding a certain drug or combination of drugs causes them to swell more. Finding a drug that causes them to swell might imply that patient … Continue reading
