The nervous system
When someone suffers from MS, their immune system starts to slowly attack its own myelin sheath, which is made out of all the cells that surround and protect the nervous system, such as the spinal cord and brain. When these cells are damaged, the nerves get exposed and the brain can’t properly send signals to the rest of the body. So the brain disconnects from the rest of the body, meaning the organs, the muscles, the tissues, and the cells, which causes:
- dizziness
- vertigo
- confusion
- memory problems
- emotional or personality changes
Depression and various other changes in the brain are nothing but the result of MS. In some rare or even advanced cases, nerve damage might even cause tremors, seizures, and cognitive problems that will definitely resemble other neurodegenerative conditions like dementia.
