If you have recently been given a diagnosis of multiple sclerosis, or perhaps CIS (Clinically Isolated Syndrome) you probably have a lot of questions and concerns. Or, you may be feeling so overwhelmed by the diagnosis that you aren’t sure what kinds of questions to ask.

The National MS Society has programs and services designed to give you the information and support you need to live comfortably and confidently with this change in your life.
