Multiple sclerosis is a chronic, often disabling, neurologic disease that affects the central nervous system, causing unpredictable and often severe symptoms. MS is considered an autoimmune disease in which the body's immune system randomly attacks apparently normal tissue. Most commonly diagnosed between the ages of 20 and 50, MS occurs two to three times more often in women than in men. An estimated 400,000 people in the U.S. have MS, and 200 new cases are diagnosed weekly. For more information, contact the Chapter at 1-800-493-9255, or visit www.msnewengland.org.
