Multiple sclerosis is often a confusing disease to others, since very
few of the symptoms MS patients experience are visible to others. This
“iceberg” effect means that many are misunderstood and their suffering vastly
underestimated.

What is
the tip of the MS iceberg (i.e., the symptoms of multiple sclerosis that people
see)?
Some of
the obvious symptoms people notice in MS patients tend to be difficulty
walking, tremors, problems with speech and maybe that they tend to scratch
themselves a lot.
But
what about all the unseen symptoms lurking beneath the surface?
For MS
patients, there are far more invisible symptoms than visible ones. A few of the
more common symptoms include fatigue, pain, numbness, spasticity, problems with
vision, dizziness and vertigo, bladder issues, cognitive problems, emotional
changes, and difficulties in breathing and swallowing.
