Navigating Life with Multiple Sclerosis from the Physical, Social, and Neurocognitive Standpoints

Abstract

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a life-long condition with a wide and varied range of symptoms which can have a profound impact on all aspects of a patient's life including future plans, self-confidence, self-esteem, relationships, quality of life and employment prospects. Living with MS can certainly be difficult and frustrating. Over time, however, most people find ways to adapt and come to terms with many of the changes that MS can bring and do manage to live fairly full lives.
