Dr. Stacey Reason was always interested in sports, but could never understand why her performance didn’t measure up despite doing more training than her friends. In 2005, Stacey was hit by a car while out for a jog and was forced to take a few years off all exercise due to her injuries. Upon starting exercise again, she went for a swim and suffered rhabdomyolysis and was hospitalized with a CK of over 200,000 U/L. Interest from a nephrologist eventually led to a diagnosis of McArdle Disease in 2008. Feeling alone and misunderstood, Stacey started the McArdle Disease FaceBook group. Today this social networking site provides support and evidence-based information to over 1500 members worldwide. This group has been instrumental in connecting people, communicating current best practice, and helping newly diagnosed patients learn effective day-to-day management strategies.
Listen in today as Stacey and Jimmy talk about how In 2014, Stacey learned about the low-carb ketogenic diet from a fellow patient, and how Ketosis enabled her to fuel her muscles more effectively – thereby alleviating the classic symptom of activity/exercise intolerance.
