"Let us adopt an unconventional position and hypothesize that MS is a degenerative disorder at its root, much like Alzheimer's, Parkinson's and many other progressive degenerative CNS disorders of unknown cause. As with most such diseases, the pathological process likely begins years or possibly decades before the initial clinical presentation. In support of this, adolescents with MS have not only a significantly reduced brain volume but also a reduced head size [47], implying that the disease likely began many years earlier while the skull was still growing." http://f1000.com/prime/reports/m/5/20/
