Symptomatology in multiple sclerosis (MS) depends on the areas of demyelination which can be situated anywhere in the white matter of central nervous system (CNS). Upper gastrointestinal tract symptoms are rarely reported. We recently saw a patient with MS who had disabling gastroparesis and dysphagia.
