A Life Beyond the Limits of Nerves
Are These Just Normal Symptoms… or the Beginning of Multiple Sclerosis (MS)?
Learn about the symptoms, types, and ways to live with the disease — and begin your journey of awareness with one simple step.
What is Multiple Sclerosis (MS)?
Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a chronic neurological disease that affects the brain and spinal cord. It occurs when the immune system attacks the protective covering of the nerves (myelin), disrupting the transmission of nerve signals.
