MS symptoms are unpredictable and variable. One individual may experience just one or few of the possible signs, while another individual may experience several more. Occurs in approximately 80% of all people, can greatly interfere with a person's ability to function normally at work and home, and can also be the most pronounced symptom in an individual who otherwise has very few mobility limitations. While not every case of MS is severe, it can nonetheless be disfiguring and embarrassing for people who have it.



MS symptoms may begin in adolescence or early adulthood. They tend to run in families and be more common among females. In most cases, MS symptoms may first appear during childhood or adolescence, but can sometimes flare up later in life. In recent years, doctors have been focusing more on understanding the triggers and occurrences of MS rather than on treating the disease itself.


When multiple sclerosis starts to progress, it typically worsens each season and gets worse in severity by about two or three times each year. The majority of MS sufferers can continue to live their lives without any obvious MS symptoms. However, for some people, multiple sclerosis can quickly take over their life, compelling them to seek treatment.



MS typically affects the central nervous system and is characterized by varied non-specific bodily manifestations. The most obvious MS symptom is difficulty walking and holding onto sidewalks and curbs. Another sign is uncontrollable shaking or trembling, which can result in falls. People with MS have also reported experiencing blurred vision, seeing double or triple images, or tunnel vision. Frequent ear infections, dizziness, or sinusitis have also been reported by people with MS. Hearing loss is a common problem among MS sufferers; however, those who are suffering from secondary symptoms such as hearing loss do not necessarily have MS.



There are various types of MS symptoms, ranging from mild to severe. A few of the more typical symptoms include: difficulty with speech or swallowing, clumsy or slow movement, depression, urinary or bowel incontinence, extreme fatigue, decreased vision, weakness or numbness, speech problems, or tingling in the hands or feet. MS patients may also experience unexplained falls or bruising.


MS symptoms can worsen as the disease progresses. This is why MS treatment is so crucial - by preventing the worsening of symptoms and maximizing the patient's ability to cope with it. In most cases, there is a pronounced worsening of symptoms in people who have already had MS for several years. However, for some MS patients, the worsening of symptoms may not be as extreme as expected, especially since the initial MS symptoms usually disappear after a few months or years.



There are many theories about how multiple sclerosis may affect someone. Most of the studies focus on MS affecting the central nervous system and the brain. Studies show that multiple sclerosis can lead to several different types of relapses or episodes, with each episode being more severe than the last one. Some MS sufferers may experience only a few relapses or may not experience any relapses at all, while other MS sufferers may experience a single episode of multiple sclerosis, or multiple relapses that worsen over time. Some MS sufferers also report that they experience attacks of remitting MS, where their first attack of MS is followed by a relapse within weeks or months.



MS affects approximately 5 million Americans alone, making it the most common chronic health disorder in the United States. Because of the multiple and varied effects of MS on the body, the impact on an individual's life can be very diverse. However, there is no one disease or generic definition of multiple sclerosis, hence MS symptoms affecting more than half of a million Americans still have to be adequately diagnosed. A comprehensive multi-dimensional approach including MRI and LASIK surgery can help to better manage the symptoms of MS and can help to slow down its development or progression.
