Nine patients suffering from both multiple sclerosis and presumed auto-immune disorder were found from a survey of case records of 326 patients with multiple sclerosis admitted to a large city hospital between 1955 and 1970. There was autoimmune disease affecting the thyroid gland in four cases, ...

The etiology of multiple sclerosis is linked to a variety of genetic and environmental factors. Both cell-mediated and humoral immune responses, triggered by extraneous or autoantigens, are likely to contribute to the pathogenesis of this disease. A greater insight into the fundamental cause of mul...
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a demyelinating disease affecting the central nervous system with an unknown origin, although the immunological system plays a crucial role in its pathogenesis. It has been observed that the relatives of MS patients very often have other autoimmune diseases (ADs) and it...
Autoimmune diseases are a pathophysiological state wherein immune responses are directed against, and damage, the body's own tissues (autoimmunity). Common examples of autoimmune disease include type 1 diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis and psoriasis. Related...
Multiple sclerosis is almost universally labeled an “autoimmune disease.” Yet after decades of research,there is still no proof that MS is the result of autoimmunity. Several papers by Drs. Abhijit Chaudhuri and Peter Behan [1,2] discuss problems with the conventional explanation: ...
But the symptoms can be very different based on the autoimmune disease. Multiple sclerosis, for instance, affects the nervous system and makes muscles weak and numb. Type 1 diabetes, on the other hand, affects the pancreas and raises blood sugar levels. Diagnosing ADs is hard because the signs...
consistent with an underlying propensity to autoreactivity. Genetic studies can also provide a unique perspective on disease mechanisms. For example, although the disease neuromyelitis optica is clinically similar to multiple sclerosis, it is genetically more similar to SLE67. Neuromyelitis optica is char...
A dear friend of mine suffered from Multiple Sclerosis and I watched her physical decline for years before she sadly passed away in 2013. This was so distressing to me, that when I first saw this TED talk from Dr. Terry Wahls, on her miraculous reversal of this terrible disease, I was ...
Headache may occur at the pre-symptomatic phase, at clinical onset and during the course of the disease. Tension-type headache and migraine without aura are the most common primary headaches reported in MS patients. The disease-modifying therapies, such as interferons, may cause or exacerbate ...
