Traveling with MS is sometimes more difficult than with other pathologies, especially in hot countries, because heat can cause a temporary worsening of symptoms (the Uhthoff phenomenon). But having MS does not mean that you cannot go on holiday. With a bit of careful planing you can go just about anywhere.
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune disease that affects the central nervous system. It causes lesions that cause motor, sensory and cognitive disturbances. At more or less long term, these disorders can progress to an irreversible disability. Current treatments can reduce exacerbations and improve quality of life for patients, but are still insufficient in efficacy to fight against the disease’s progression.
However, having MS does not mean that you cannot take holidays or travel. Today, you can travel just about anywhere, any time, with a bit of preparation. At the same time, know your limits and try to avoid lengthy and physically exhausting journeys. Ideally, make stops during your journey to recover from stress and tiredness.
Suitable for Avonex, Copaxone, Glatiramer, Glatopa, Plegridy and Rebif or any other MS medication
