What is MS?
Multiple Sclerosis, or MS, is an autoimmune disease that affects the central nervous system — the brain, the spinal cord, and the optic nerves. The disease can damage the myelin coating that insulates these important nerves. This damage can disrupt nerve function, causing a variety of unpredictable symptoms that range from mild to debilitating.
* Every hour, someone is newly diagnosed with MS.
* More than 2.5 million people worldwide live with this serious disease.
* MS is the most common neurological disease leading to disability in young adults.
