Multiple Sclerosis | Rachael's Story

For 3 years, Rachael suffered from symptoms that she could not explain, blurry vision, sensory disturbance, numbness on one side of her body, and fatigue. Multiple doctors told her she was fine. She was starting to lose hope, until she was referred to the Penn MS Center. Dr. Eric Williamson, MD, Assistant Professor of Neurology diagnosed Rachael with multiple sclerosis. Rachael has MS, but now she also has a plan and team at Penn. Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune disease affecting the central nervous system (the brain, spinal cord, and optic nerves). There are more than 450,000 people in the United States with MS, making it among the most common neurological illnesses in North America. Although MS can appear at any age, it most commonly begins between the ages of 20 and 40, and affects women twice as often as men. The Penn MS Center is made up of experienced, highly-trained physicians and specialists who are experts in the diagnosis and management of MS. Patients benefit from individualized treatment plans and personal care from dedicated physicians, nurses, nurse practitioners, social workers, and a pharmacist.
