"Ms" in context
Ms stands for Multiple Sclerosis and is a chronic, often disabling disease of the central nervous system (CNS). It can affect the brain, spinal cord, and the optic nerves in the eyes, leading to problems such as poor coordination, disturbances in sensation, muscle weakness, spasms and even paralysis. Researchers are unsure what causes MS, but most believe that genetic and environmental factors interact to trigger the disease in those who are genetically predisposed. The symptoms of MS can vary from person to person, but fatigue is one of the most common and can severely limit a person's daily activities.
