Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a neurological condition - that means it affects your
nerves. You get it when your immune system isn’t working properly. Your immune
system normally protects you by fighting off infection, but in MS it attacks
your nerves by mistake. Your nerves control lots of different parts of your
body. That’s why you can get MS symptoms in many parts of your body. It’s also
why everyone’s MS is different. Once diagnosed, MS stays with you for life, but
treatments and specialists can help you to manage the condition and its
symptoms. We're here to help you live well with your MS and fund research to
stop MS for good.
