    Multiple Sclerosis (MS)

    Multiple Sclerosis: A disease in which the immune system eats away at the protective covering of nerves. Some people with MS may experience vision loss, pain, fatigue, and impaired coordination. The symptoms, severity, and duration can vary from person to person. Some people may be symptom free most of their lives, while others can have severe chronic symptoms that never go away.
