Neuroinflammation

Neuroinflammatory conditions are a group of diseases that involve inflammation in the central nervous system (CNS). These conditions can cause a wide range of symptoms, from mild impairment to severe disability.

Neuroinflammation occurs when the immune system mistakenly attacks healthy cells in the CNS, leading to inflammation and damage to the nervous system. There are several types of neuroinflammatory conditions, including multiple sclerosis, neuromyelitis optica, transverse myelitis, and acute disseminated encephalomyelitis.

This page contains patient information on a range of neuroinflammatory disorders, including their causes, symptoms, diagnosis, and management options.

​The purpose of this page is to provide patient information on these conditions, their symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment options. I understand that dealing with these conditions can be overwhelming, and I hope that this page will help you better understand your condition and the options available to manage it.
