A great video from the BBC on the collaboration between @theroyalballet and @RoyalOperaHouse that they hope will improve peoples understanding of MS.
Do you have multiple sclerosis? Have you been prescribed a disease modifying drug for your MS? Keep abreast of developments and advice for those taking MS drugs especially if you are on drugs that are given by infusion. Monitoring by your clinical team is important and monitoring activities are constantly updated. Your local MS care team will be able to advise you of any changes affecting you.
