The authors investigated the amount of blood histamine in 92 patients with multiple sclerosis depending on the length of the disease and its clinical form. The biopsies of the gastric mucosa were studied in 32 patients. It was established that the patients showed a high level of blood histamine (disease length--under 5 years) and a low level (disease length--over 5 years). The histologic changes were pronounced in the gastric mucosa which is evaluated as a complication of multiple sclerosis.
