Summary Introduction
To write:
The symptoms and disease progression of multiple sclerosis.
Introduction:
The MS or multiple sclerosis refers to a potentially disabling disorder of the spinal cord and the brain.

Finally, the disorder can lead to deterioration or permanent destruction of the nerves.
