About MS
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 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.
