A)There are four classifications of multiple sclerosis (MS). Relapsing-remitting MS is characterized by clearly defined flare-ups with worsening neurological function followed by periods of partial or complete remission with few or no symptoms. Primary-progressive MS involves slow but nearly continuous worsening of the disease from the time of onset with no distinct remissions. Secondary-progressive MS begins as relapsing-remitting but becomes worse between exacerbations. Progressive-relapsing MS involves a steady worsening of disease with acute relapses.
