"MS in America" Top Line Results Available on Newly Launched
MutipleSclerosis.Net
PHILADELPHIA, March 6, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Health Union, LLC announced today
that it has published the results from the "MS in America 2013" survey on its
newly launched website http://MultipleSclerosis.Net. The survey covered a broad
array of topics impacting people with Multiple Sclerosis, and was taken by 3,437
respondents making it one of the largest of its kind conducted with MS patients
in the United States.

"We were very pleased at the level of participation we received with this
survey," said Tim Armand, President of Health Union, LLC. "We wanted to publish
the results this month in recognition of National MS Awareness and Education
Month. For the general public, the results shed light on what it is like to live
with MS, and the results will help MS patients see how others live with and
manage the disease."

Respondents reported numbness, tingling or other altered sensations, problems
with walking, vision problems and fatigue among the most common initial
symptoms. Although these symptoms first occurred most frequently between the
ages of 25-35, MS was not typically diagnosed until a decade later. Use of a
wide range of pharmacologic and complementary and alternative therapies were
also reported, with a majority (61.3%) of patients spending over $1,000 a year
out of pocket despite having health insurance. Nearly half (45.7%) of
respondents reported being on disability and one in four reported MS having an
impact on their personal relationships.

The top line report from the MS in America survey can be found on Health
Union's new website which was launched in February of this year. On
MultipleSclerosis.Net, readers will find hundreds of pages of MS-specific
content covering MS basics, symptoms, diagnosis, treatments, overviews of the
latest research along with regular contributions from patient advocates and
other experts. MutipleSclerosis.Net also welcomes comments and discussion of
MS-related topics on its moderated forums.

The MS in America study was solely funded by Health Union LLC and the primary
goal of the study was to establish an understanding of the current state and
trends of patients affected by Multiple Sclerosis. Health Union does not
manufacture, sell nor market any product to diagnose, prevent, or treat MS or
any other disease, but is the creator and publisher of in-depth,
condition-specific online communities. Health Union's communities are always
free to users and are supported by transparent advertising and sponsorships.
Health Union also owns http://Migraine.com, the largest and fastest growing
online community dedicated to migraine.

Health Union will continue to analyze the MS in America data and will publish
new findings, including in-depth analysis of specific patient segments on
MultipleSclerosis.Net in the coming months.
