The cause of MS is unknown, but it is believed to be caused by an autoimmune response against myelin, a protective sheath around nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord. Symptoms can develop slowly over time, often starting with mild symptoms such as fatigue or blurred vision. As the condition progresses, more serious symptoms may appear, including seizures, paralysis and blindness. There is no cure for MS yet, but there are treatments available that can help manage the symptoms. If you are concerned about your own health and live in fear of developing MS, speak to your doctor about testing for the disease.
