The average life expectancy for someone with MS is 35 years after the symptoms begin. This represents a life expectancy of 95 percent of someone who does not have multiple sclerosis. Most people with the disease can function effectively; however, a rare form of acute MS can be fatal within weeks.
The progress, severity and specific symptoms of MS in any one person cannot yet be predicted. Most people with MS are diagnosed between the ages of 20 and 50, with at least two to three times more women than men being diagnosed with the disease. InformaciÃ³n en EspaÃ±ol Knowledge Is Power
