Spheres of uncertainty: A phenomenological inquiry into healthcare practice surrounding the care for people with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis
The four different spheres never seem to fully surface, making uncertainty a masked phenomenon. The findings imply a need for an "unveiling" of uncertainty through 1) examining and debating the course of action at the outpatient clinic, 2) reconsidering the promises and perils of technology, and 3) through metacommunication with patients.
