Female, 30s

I was having pain in the back of my eyes and constant dizziness. At first, I thought it was because of my stress, and I google my symptoms. I found the information on Google intimidating and felt like I’m dying. I used Ubie to check my symptoms, and it told me that I have MS and recommended to see a doctor. I was surprised when I took the blood test, the result was the same as what Ubie said

Female, 50s

I had contact pain in my back which worsened in the last year. One of my friends recommended Ubie for me to try, and I liked the experience of it! I felt like Ubie asked me proper questions, and the result was very informative. Ubie says I have MS, so I showed the screen to the doctor, confirmed the accuracy, and received the same advice!

What is Multiple Sclerosis (MS)?

Multiple sclerosis (MS) disease in which the immune system attacks parts of the brain and spinal cord. The direct cause of MS remains unknown, but certain risk factors have been identified such as low vitamin D levels, tobacco smoking, exposure to UV radiation, childhood obesity, and infection with the virus that causes mononucleosis. The disease tends to affect young people more commonly as well as people living in higher latitudes. MS typically occurs in "attacks" which can include but are not limited to painful eye movements, blurry vision in one eye, numbness or weakness in hands or feet on one side, or double vision.

Diagnostic Questions for Multiple Sclerosis (MS)

Your doctor may ask these questions to check for this disease:

  • Have you been diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis?
  • Are you experiencing an inability to move one side of your body?

  • Do you see double?
  • Do you have body-wide pain?

Treatment of Multiple Sclerosis (MS)

Treatment of MS includes medications, physical/occupational therapy, lifestyle changes, and psychological support. Some medications prevent immune system attacks on the central nervous system, whereas others speed up recovery from attacks, or others reduce MS symptoms such as urinary problems or imbalanced walking. Physical therapy accelerates recovery from attacks and Lifestyle changes like quitting smoking can help reduce risk of further attacks.
