Our approach to Multiple Sclerosis Care

If you are living with MS you know that symptoms can vary widely from person to person, affecting any part of the body. Depending on the type of MS you have, symptoms can come and go in phases or get steadily worse over time. We understand this and will develop a care plan tailored to you to help you live the life you love as independently as possible.

What is Multiple Sclerosis

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a condition that can affect the brain and spinal cord, causing a wide range of potential symptoms, including problems with vision, arm or leg movement, sensation or balance. It’s a lifelong condition that can sometimes cause serious disability, although it can occasionally be mild. Multiple sclerosis is most commonly diagnosed in people in their 20s, 30s and 40s, although it can develop at any age. The condition is about 2 to 3 times more common in women than men. Symptoms of MS vary widely from person to person and can affect any part of the body. The main symptoms include:

  • fatigue
  • difficulty walking
  • vision problems, such as blurred vision
  • problems controlling the bladder
  • numbness or tingling in different parts of the body
  • muscle stiffness and spasms
  • problems with balance and co-ordination
  • problems with thinking, learning and planning

Depending on the type of MS you have, your symptoms may come and go in phases or get steadily worse over time.
