    I am a patient of Multiple Sclerosis living in Korea. I was diagnosed with the disease at the age of 19 and it's only been a year now. I still don't know. Why I got this disease. But I want to overcome it. Even though I have a disease, I am doing my college life and preparing for a certificate and working hard. However, there are often many difficulties in everyday life due to illness. I hope God gives me strength to overcome. I hope the same patients with multiple sclerosis will cheer up. Thank you. Have a nice day.

    That two seconds of club music for the T Cell going through the blood/brain barrier is the best thing that happened to me all week.

    Dude this channel is doing more than helping people study ....this channel is carrying on the tradition of understanding biological processes to make the world a better place. It's people like this who make today...today
  • @slubuggy123
    So freakin' amazing, a lot of people would take an hour or 2 to explain MS in a way everyone can grasp, but not only have you explained it so easily, you've done so in just over 10 mins! Too good 🙌🏼
  • @gaborap1043
    This looks horrendous. My heart goes out to all those suffering with this.

    I'm 29 and I am positive this has been whats been happening to me for the last 15 years. I usually end up in the ER and get sent away, but from that pattern I can tell that those ER visits were all relapses or flare ups. Recently, i have peripheral neuropathy out of nowhere, my arm and leg will be numb, tingly, "asleep" feeling and painful forever. ER sent me away this time saying I need to ask my primary for an MRI since they determined it's not a stroke. Thing is, Primary Care Drs never listen and never care. But maybe now that I have 15 years if evidence they will start treating me. Sorry for ranting in a youtube comments section about it, it just really sucks and doctors in America are so very out of touch with reality.

    I'm studying neuropsychology for my Master's level and picked multiple sclerosis as my term paper topic. I'm always very keen to understand a topic before I get into writing the actual paper and this was very helpful. Thank you!
  • @amberdevore3298
    my grandmother struggles with this disease and this video really helped me understand what she goes through on a daily basis. thank you for educating people like me about this horrible disease.
  • @jaxraven9802
    sitting in a hospital bed right now , they are saying that they strongly suspect MS because of my MRI and my symptoms... my spinal tap is tomorrow too confirm. Im really scared. this video helped me understand what is going on.... thank you
  • Thank you for this my doctor is saying that I might have this and I'm only 16 and this helped me understand it more so it seems less scary
  • @iProxyIX
    Was diagnosed at 21 and Ive lived with it for about 5 years now. The hardest part is feeling it get worse and worse over time. And I fear for the future... I don't want to end up in a vegetative state later in life. There are promising studies involving stem cells but they're so expensive. Hopefully they figure out an affordable cure within our lifetime.

    my aunt has this! she was trying to explain this and i understood most of it when i related it to the synaptic, axon, and nervous cells. I am learning about these medical terms in Vet tech and I was excited when i ran into this video today. I was concerned about my aunt's condition because, I do help her alot when it comes to going to the store and running errands together every now and then as we enjoy each other's company. Thank you for this explanation. this helps alot!
  • @Spyder1246
    Hate this disorder. Had a really bad episode a couple weeks ago. Great job on this video. I think I'll show my friends this. Tired of explaining it haha.
  • @Coyote8Peyote
    Thank you for this video, very informative. I just got diagnosed about a month ago and I’m still trying to come to terms with the fact that I have it. My entire right side fell paralyzed, it’s so scary. I remember reading about Lou Gehrig’s disease and being terrified and now I have something very similar.. thankfully physical therapy and steroids have helped me regain most of the control I lost back though. :) I again thank you for breaking it down like this because understanding my body is key in managing this cruddy disease.
  • Thank you for making this video. I have had ms since I was 13, and this video told me more than any doctor I have been to. Over last 4 years, the doc just gave me death sentences and no meds.
