Researchers have examined health records of 14,000 people with multiple sclerosis and compared them to the health records of 67,000 people without the disease.

Irritable bowel syndrome was almost twice as common in people who developed the disorder. Migraine headaches and any mood or anxiety disorder, which includes depression, anxiety and bipolar disorder were also found in higher rates among the group.
