Castleman's Disease (CD) is a rare disease categorized as non-Hodgkin. The International Castleman's Disease Organization (ICDO) is a patient advocacy network created to provide patient information on this rare disease, introduce CD “centers of excellence”, and refer patients to clinicians responsible for treating a diagnosis of Castleman’s Disease. This premiere International Castleman’s Disease show will introduce a new health program series to BlogTalkRadio (BTR) that will openly discuss issues related to patient advocacy. Our broadcast will reach patients of the International Castleman’s Disease Organization in the U.S. and abroad. An aggressive CD BTR schedule is planned that will present academic medical facilities involved with treating CD patients and introductions from each of the ICDO Board of Directors.
