The common characteristic of multiple sclerosis (MS) is the damage to the myelin sheath, the protective covering of nerve fibers in the central nervous system. This damage disrupts the transmission of nerve signals, leading to a variety of neurological symptoms such as fatigue, weakness, coordination problems, and cognitive difficulties. MS is also characterized by its unpredictable nature, with symptoms often varying widely among individuals and can fluctuate over time.
