For those who have been recently diagnosed with multiple sclerosis, it can be difficult to understand the chronic neurological disease.  At the MS Society of Canada, patients can find the information they need to feel more in control of their disease and their treatment process.  This Canada MS society offers a free website that is available to residents of Canada as well as other countries.  This easy to navigate page includes recent news relating to the disease, information about multiple sclerosis and its progression, treatment options and alternative treatment information, and donation options.  They also list any special events coming up that people can participate in, such as MS dinner parties, the MS Walk, or the RONA MS Bike Tour.  These special events are held in order to raise funding for research in the multiple sclerosis field and to help local programs that help people who are affected by the disease

Each page on the website is neatly organized, so people can easily get to the page they want to find the information they need whether they are a family member, a person afflicted with multiple sclerosis, or a professional who treats the disease.  This ensures that medical professionals can access the research and treatment information they need, while the patients and the families will not get confused by the medical publications.

 

A Canada MS Society Offering Ways To Live With Chronic Disease

 

The Multiple Sclerosis Society of Canada offers a lot of information about living with multiple sclerosis and not sacrificing the quality of life.  One of their missions is to enhance the quality of life for any person living with the neurological disease.  They have a “Living With MS” section on their website that offers many different suggestions and tips on how to live with a chronic disease without letting it run your life.  They have a support section for people who are newly diagnosed with multiple sclerosis, and they list any support groups or learning events that may be going on in Canada.  They even have a special section for younger people who are suffering from multiple sclerosis.  This is a very helpful section for anyone who is living with a diagnosis of multiple sclerosis.  It can also be a helpful section for someone who is a caregiver for people with multiple sclerosis, such as a family member or loved one.  From this section, they can learn how to find nearby clinics, learn to deal with any psychological changes due to their loved one dealing with a chronic disease, and more.
