NEW YORK, June 27 -- The National Multiple Sclerosis Society issued the following news:
Researchers report that, among 959 people with MS, comorbidities were common. Elevated cholesterol and anxiety were linked to an increased risk of disease activity.

Comorbidities are often modifiable, so this study lends evidence that addressing them may improve MS.
