Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a neurological condition characterized by the immune system mistakenly attacking the protective sheath, known as myelin, that covers nerve fibers. This results in disrupted communication between the brain and the body. Symptoms can be unpredictable and vary greatly from one person to another but may include fatigue, mobility issues, sensory problems, and cognitive impairments.
