Hiya Ed.

I am sure there are more people with MS than we think. So, not so rare.

MS has so many different symptoms, it’s hard to even diagnose.

Depends on how we view the figures…” there are approximately 7.673 billion people in the world. Of those around 2.8 million have been diagnosed with MS ( sounds a lot. ) Based on that data less than 1% of the population has MS ”  ( doesn’t sound a lot )
