Doctor Discussion Guide

Starting a conversation

Multifocal Motor Neuropathy (MMN) is a long-lasting disease that causes muscle weakness in the hands and/or feet, usually on one side of the body.

Whether it’s time to talk about a potential diagnosis, starting treatment, or how managing MMN can fit into your daily routine, the conversation you have with your doctor is key.
