We welcomed guest speaker Brandon R. Peters, M.D., FAASM, who discussed the relationship between peripheral neuropathy, pain, and sleep. During the program, we learned about some of the most commonly used medications that aid in pain relief and sleep. Additionally, Dr. Peters touched on restless legs syndrome and periodic limb movements of sleep, explaining how these conditions connect to both PN and sleep disruptions.
Dr. Peters is a double board-certified neurologist and sleep medicine specialist and a fellow of the American Academy of Sleep Medicine. He currently practices at Virginia Mason Franciscan Health in Seattle, WA, and is a leading voice in sleep medicine, working at the cutting edge of medicine and technology to advance the field.
