MUSC Multiple Sclerosis Clinic : About Multiple Sclerosis : Cognitive Impairment : Attention & Concentration

All other cognitive functions depend on good powers of concentration. Attention and/or concentration problems may be manifest as the inability to focus for long periods of time or as extreme distractibility during a task. Because fatigue and stress can also affect these functions, the person with MS may be at very high risk for attention and/or concentration problems.
