Multiple Sclerosis
Overview of Multiple Sclerosis
Disabling of the brain and spinal cord (central nervous system) is called multiple sclerosis. MS causes the immune system to attack the protective sheath that covers the nerve fibers. It also causes communication problems to the rest of your body and your brain. Ultimately, the disease can cause permanent damage to your nerves.
