<br/><br/>  Patients with Multiple sclerosis frequently experience severe fatigue that<br/>can be as disabling as objective neurological deficits. The walking exercises have<br/>significant effect in reducing multiple sclerosis related- fatigue. Aim: To evaluate the<br/>effect of walking exercises on fatigue among patients with multiple sclerosis. Design:<br/>Nonequivalent control group time series quasi-experimental design was utilized.<br/>Sample: A convenient sample of 60 adult male and female patients with relapse<br/>remitting multiple sclerosis was recruited along12 weeks. Tools: Four tools were<br/>utilized to collect data: (a) Semi-Structured Interview Questionnaire, (b) Fatigue<br/>Severity Scale (c) The Expanded Disability Status Scale, (d) The Beck Depression<br/>Inventory-II scale. Results: In relation to the total mean scores of fatigue severity<br/>scale, there was high statistically significant difference between the study and control<br/>groups after 6weeks of implementing treadmill walking exercise( t=5.367 &<br/>p=0.0001) and after12 weeks of implementing treadmill walking exercise (t=8.931&<br/>p=0.0001). Moreover, 50 % of the study group had no fatigue after 6 weeks of<br/>treadmill walking exercise compared to 76.70 % of them after 12 weeks. Conclusion:<br/>Treadmill walking exercise was effective in reducing fatigue severity level among<br/>patients with multiple sclerosis  يعاني مرضى التصلب المتعدد في كثير من الأحيان من التعب الشديد يمكن أن يكون معيقًا مثل العجز العصبي الموضوعي. تمارين المشي لديها تأثير كبير في الحد من التعب المرتبط بمرض التصلب المتعدد. الهدف: تقييم تأثير تمارين المشي على التعب لدى مرضى التصلب المتعدد. تصميم: تم استخدام التصميم شبه التجريبي للسلاسل الزمنية للمجموعة الضابطة غير المتكافئة. العينة: عينة مناسبة مكونة من 60 مريضًا بالغًا من الذكور والإناث الذين يعانون من الانتكاس
