Description
Multiple sclerosis (MS) usually strikes adults in the prime of life – between the ages of 16 and 50. It is a chronic disease of the central nervous system affecting the brain and spinal cord. One new case of MS is diagnosed every hour. It comes and goes unpredictably, leaving people to wonder, 'Will I become paralyzed, blind or have trouble walking? Will I be able to raise my family and continue my career?'
Thanks to significant advances in research, the FDA has approved several treatments that my alter the underlying disease course of multiple sclerosis, and early treatment is critically important. People with MS should consult their doctors about using one of these FDA approved medications and other effective treatments for the symptons of MS.
If you or someone you know has MS, contact the National Multiple Sclerosis Society at 1-800-FIGHT MS or nationalmssociety.org The National MS Society is dedicated to ending the devastating effects of multiple sclerosis.
