Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a complex disease, with signs and symptoms that differ from one person into another; this clinical variability is due to the different locations of the anatomical-pathological lesions. In addition to motor symptoms, psychological disorders can be observed, as it is shown in several studies and to different extent, with a wide-range percentage of 14-57% [1]. This study aimed to assess subjective Quality of Life (QoL) in patients with Relapsing-Remitting Multiple Sclerosis (RRMS). The results of the present study show how QoL is perceived by patients affected by RRMS and they may be useful for all professionals who work with such people. Moreover, it may be considered one of the starting points in order to find other and more effective strategies aimed to improve QoL

Abstract

Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a complex disease, with signs and symptoms that differ from one person into another; this clinical variability is due to the different locations of the anatomical-pathological lesions. In addition to motor symptoms, psychological disorders can be observed, as it is shown in several studies and to different extent, with a wide-range percentage of 14-57% [1]. This study aimed to assess subjective Quality of Life (QoL) in patients with Relapsing-Remitting Multiple Sclerosis (RRMS). The results of the present study show how QoL is perceived by patients affected by RRMS and they may be useful for all professionals who work with such people. Moreover, it may be considered one of the starting points in order to find other and more effective strategies aimed to improve QoL
