Pain is a much more common symptom of MS than is generally realised. MS Essential 17: Pain and sensory symptoms is a booklet which describes types of pain and looks at the variety of treatments available. Other potentially helpful adjustments to lifestyle are also described.

To make it easier to use, we've split the audio files into the sections as they appear in the booklet. Scroll down the page to find the section you're after.
