Ep 9. CSF Leak - Symptoms, diagnosis & treatment

New podcast episode is out now! Our host and headache specialist Dr Katy Munro speaks with Dr Deborah Kerr, a GP and fellow headache specialist, and Dr Bernadette Hard, to explore their personal experiences with cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leaks. Dr Hard, a GP and trustee of the CSF Leak Association, shares her inspiring recovery journey and how she’s channelling her experience into action by taking on an extraordinary challenge—a wing walk on Friday the 13th of September to raise funds for a CSF leak registry. Meanwhile, Dr Kerr opens about her ongoing struggles with the condition, highlighting just how difficult and life-altering CSF leaks can be. Together, their stories shed light on the often misunderstood and under-recognised impact of this condition.
