Multiple sclerosis (MS) Infusion Therapy

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic autoimmune disease of the central nervous system where the immune system mistakenly attacks the protective covering of nerve fibers, causing communication problems between the brain and the rest of the body, potentially leading to a wide range of physical and cognitive symptoms that can vary greatly from person to person and may come and go or progressively worsen over time.
