What Is Multiple Sclerosis?
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic condition that can significantly impact daily life. At Homewatch CareGivers, we understand the challenges faced by individuals with MS and their families. Our dedicated team provides compassionate, personalized in-home care tailored to meet the unique needs of those living with MS.
Multiple sclerosis is a chronic autoimmune disease affecting the central nervous system. This means the body’s immune system mistakenly attacks the protective myelin sheath around nerve fibers. When this myelin is damaged, it disrupts communication between the brain and other parts of the body.
MS is a complex condition with varying symptoms and progression rates among different people. While there’s no cure, treatments are available to manage symptoms and slow disease progression.
