CONDITION AND TREATMENT OVERVIEW Multiple Sclerosis

Your immune system plays an important role in keeping your body healthy and free from illness. However, certain chronic conditions can cause your immune system to work overtime. This can lead to numerous conditions where your body is attacking itself, resulting in pain, discomfort, and even disability. One of these chronic autoimmune conditions is multiple sclerosis (MS), a condition where your body attacks the protective coating over your nerves.

MS is widely known as one of the most painful and debilitating autoimmune conditions. Fortunately, advancements in infusion therapy for multiple sclerosis can help manage the symptoms of MS and restore quality of life.

Multiple Sclerosis

What Is Multiple Sclerosis?

In order to send signals from your brain throughout your body, your nervous system needs to be protected. This is normally done through a coating of myelin over your nerves. Multiple sclerosis affects the body by attacking the myelin and exposing nerves. This can cause permanent damage and additional deterioration over time.

Some of the most common symptoms experienced by those with MS are:

  • Slurred speech
  • Fatigue
  • Feeling numb or weak in one or more limbs
  • Feeling a sense of being “shocked” when moving one’s neck
  • Vision loss or double vision
  • Feeling pain or a tingling sensation throughout the body
  • Difficulty with bowel or bladder functions

While there is no cure for MS, infusion therapy for multiple sclerosis provides patients with a convenient, comfortable way to manage their symptoms.

How Can Multiple Sclerosis Be Treated?

Treatment for multiple sclerosis typically involves helping a patient recover from attacks. The goal of this treatment is to prevent the disease from progressing and causing additional harm to the nervous system.

While there are a variety of medications that are used in treatment, many patients with MS find great success with regular infusion therapy.

Infusion therapy is a method of administering medicines directly into the bloodstream. Unlike oral or topical treatments, infusion therapy provides faster results and effects. This can help speed recovery after an attack and provide faster relief.
