Multiple Sclerosis Treatment Cost in Turkey

Overview

Multiple Sclerosis(MS) is a disease that affects your brain and spinal cord (Central Nervous System)

In Multiple Sclerosis, your own immune system will attack the protective covering (myelin sheath) over the nerve fibers and eventually causes permanent neural damage. This affects the overall communication between your brain and the rest of the body. Though there is no permanent treatment for Multiple sclerosis, intermittent treatment can manage the symptoms and help in speedy recovery.
