Multiple sclerosis(MS)
MS is a degenerative disease that affects the brain, optic nerve and spinal cord. The disease destroys myelin sheaths that cover the nerves, ultimately destroying the nerves. Symptoms vary and progress with time. In the beginning there may be dizziness, mood swings, blurred vision, numbness, nausea and vomiting. Later a person may have trouble walking; eventually paralysis and difficulty breathing may occur. Usually the disease presents itself in flare-ups, which may occur every few months or every few years. The exact cause of MS is unknown. Many believe, however, that stress, malnutrition or a virus could be factors. Others suggest that chemical or mercury poisoning could be major factors. At this time there is no cure for this disease.
