What is Multiple Sclerosis (MS)?

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune disease that affects the brain and the spinal cord disrupting the brain signals and thus the message they carry to the body. The disease occurs when the immune system attacks the myelin sheath which is a protective sheath around the nerve fibers. This causes inflammation in the myelin resulting in signal disruption carried from the brain to the body. This nervous system disorder affects every individual differently making the symptoms worse in some and mild in others. There is no absolute cure for MS but the disease and the symptoms can be managed.
