The brain has a protective barrier which is known as the sheath, which is damaged by MS.  Symptoms related to MS can vary from person to person.  Common symptoms are numbness in any area of the body, dizziness, problems with ambulation, tremors, double vision.  This list is not exhaustive as there are many other symptoms that can be caused by MS.       

Presently, MS is treated with medications which can also cause many severe side effects as well.  Because the levels of severity of anemia vary, your eligibility for disability will depend on your symptoms and their impact on your ability to work.
