How does MS begin?

MS typically begins with episodic neurological symptoms that can vary greatly among different patients. Common initial symptoms include visual disturbances such as double vision or impaired vision in one eye, muscle weakness, balance problems, sensory disturbances, and sudden coordination difficulties. Symptoms can come and go, and their severity varies. In the early stages of MS, symptoms may be mild and transient, but as the disease progresses, they can worsen and become more permanent.
