Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is the result of damage to myelin – a protective sheath surrounding nerve fibres of the central nervous system. When myelin is damaged this interferes with messages between the brain and other parts of the body.
Our MS in a Minute videos were created to provide fast and factual definitions of commonly used terms in MS.
