MS is here to support people living with multiple sclerosis and their loved ones at every stage through their journey. All of a sudden there is a lot of new information to absorb, questions to ask and key decisions to make. We’re here so no one has to face multiple sclerosis alone.Ī multiple sclerosis diagnosis can be extremely difficult to come to grips with. MS offers a range of vital support services from expert advice, wellbeing programs, peer support and employment to allied health and accommodation, while funding cutting-edge research into a cure. Multiple Sclerosis Limited (MS) is the go-to provider of information, advice and support for people affected by multiple sclerosis. MS is the most commonly acquired disease of the central nervous system and there is no known cause or cure yet. Over 26,500 Australians are living with multiple sclerosis and there are approximately 2.8 million people diagnosed worldwide. An autoimmune disease of the central nervous system, it interferes with the nerve impulses within the brain, spinal cord and optic nerves. Multiple sclerosis is unpredictable and debilitating.
