What Is Multiple Sclerosis?
Multiple sclerosis (often shortened to MS) affects a person's 'nervous system'.
Your nervous system sends messages around the body to and from the brain about such things as heat or pain. It’s a bit like the wires that connect computers or telephones, except the wires are made of long chains of tiny cells called neurones.
Many messages go down our spinal cords
The body protects neurones by covering them in something called Myelin, which is a bit like the cladding around electrical wiring. And that’s where problems can arise for people who develop MS.
When someone has MS, their immune system, which usually protects them from illness, becomes over enthusiastic and start attacking the myelin cladding that protects our neurones. The myelin becomes ‘scarred’.
If the myelin is damaged, it becomes more difficult for messages to travel from one neurone to the next. Sometimes the messages become confused or get lost.
