How to Cope and Live a Full Life With Multiple Sclerosis

How to Cope and Live a Full Life With Multiple Sclerosis

Multiple sclerosis (ms) is a chronic condition that affects your brain, spinal cord, and optic nerves, which are all parts of the central nervous system. We cannot predict how it will progress in patients, as it can cause either mild or severe symptoms. 

So, can you live a normal life with ms?

In our article, we’ll talk about the symptoms and treatments and provide you with tips on living with ms.  

What Is MS?

MS is an autoimmune disease, where the immune system attacks healthy tissue, just as it would do in the case of a virus or bacterial infection. This occurs when the immune system attacks the myelin sheath, which surrounds and protects the nerve fibers, and so, this causes inflammation and pain in the body.

A scar, plaques, or lesions form when the myelin sheath disappears, and as a result, the electric impulses that the brain produces don’t flow smoothly to the nerve fibers. 

Moreover, there are four types of the condition:

  • Clinically Isolated Syndrome (CIS): This develops when someone has a single episode and their symptoms only last for about a day. If they experience another episode, they may have RRMS (see below).
  • Relapse-Remitting MS (RRMS): This is the frequently diagnosed form of MS and causes new or increasing symptoms, with remission periods. 
  • Primary Progressive MS (PPMS): This causes symptoms to worsen progressively and affects about 15% of patients who have MS. However, symptoms may improve sometimes and people may also have times of stability.
  • Secondary Progressive MS (SPMS): People with SPMS go through phases of relapse/remission and may notice that the condition is progressing steadily. 

What Are The Symptoms Of MS?

Multiple sclerosis destroys the covering sheath of the central nervous system, leading to:

  • Fatigue
  • Visual impairment
  • Slurred speech
  • Chronic pain
  • Muscular paralysis
  • Muscle spasms
  • Heat intolerance
  • Depression, anxiety, and/or mood swings.

  • Following a healthy diet: There is no specific diet that people living with MS should follow, but eating foods that are low in fat and high in vitamins, and fiber can maximize your energy and support your bladder function. Following a healthy diet also helps with reducing the risk of developing diabetes, high blood sugar and abdominal obesity among others.

  • Customizing your environment: People living with MS may experience a sudden onset of symptoms, and so, it is best to ensure that the things you frequently use are within your reach. You can also install safety features in your bathroom to reduce the risk of falls.
  • Addressing sleep issues: MS can cause sleep problems, such as insomnia, frequent nighttime urination, and leg spasms. Some people also tend to wake up early in the morning due to an overactive bladder. What you can do is to listen to relaxing music and avoid using your phone 30 minutes before going to sleep. Meditation, yoga, and deep breathing techniques may also help improve your sleep.
