Many people have seen my TEDx talk given at the Iowa City TEDx event on November 11, 2011. Likewise, many have expressed gratitude for the information that I share in the TEDx video, on my Facebook page and on my web page. Thank you so much for your kind words. Here is a short update on our research and how you can help support our work:

Our research was presented at the 2011 Neuroscience Conference in Washington D.C. on November 13. We reported that 7 of 9 people with SPMS had clinically significant reduction in fatigue and improvement in the general health quality of life scores within 6 months of starting our intervention. At present we are working on writing up our initial data. Our second wave of subjects will be scheduled throughout the spring. It is a very exciting and rewarding time for the study team.

I have established the Wahls Foundation, Inc. as a nonprofit organization to support my research and education of the public and medical colleagues. Once we have received our tax-exempt status, The Wahls Foundation, Inc. will begin a fund-raising campaign to support the next clinical trial.
