Multiple Sclerosis
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a disease that attacks the brain and spinal cord. Most people experience their first symptoms as adults, somewhere between the ages of 20 and 40. For some people, MS can be a mild illness, but for others it can result in a permanent handicap. Symptoms vary from person to person and may change over the course of the disease. The most common symptoms include abnormal fatigue, vision problems, difficulty walking, slurred speech, tremors, stiffness, and bladder problems.
