Patient Chit Chats
Connect with the LEMS Community
LEMS Chit Chats are casual, monthly group calls where patients and caregivers come together to talk, listen, and connect. There’s no pressure and no agenda—just real people sharing real experiences in a supportive, understanding space. Whether you’re newly diagnosed or years into your journey, you’re welcome here.

LEMS Lifeline
The LEMS Lifeline connects you one-on-one with someone who truly understands your journey. Whether you’re newly diagnosed or facing a new challenge, you’ll be matched with a trained peer who has lived experience with LEMS. These conversations are private, supportive, and centered on listening, not fixing. You don’t have to navigate this alone.
LEMS Learn
LEMS Learn offers clear, trustworthy education to help you better understand LEMS and your care options. Through webinars, workshops, and expert-led sessions, you can build confidence in managing your health and advocating for yourself. Our goal is to turn confusion into clarity and questions into empowerment. Knowledge is a powerful part of your journey.
