Progressive Multiple Sclerosis

Progressive Multiple Sclerosis (PMS) is a chronic, degenerative disorder of the central nervous system. It is marked by an acceleration of the deterioration of nerve cells, resulting in physical and cognitive disabilities. PMS is the most severe form of Multiple Sclerosis and it is estimated to affect approximately 10 percent of the two million people worldwide who have been diagnosed with MS. PMS has no known cure, but treatment with medications, physical therapy, and other therapies can help to manage symptoms and improve quality of life. Research into treatments for PMS has made significant progress in recent years and has provided new hope for people with the condition.
