Age of Diagnosis

JohnnieBear  has a thread that asks you to list what age you were when you were given the dx of MS.  I would love to see this information as numbers/percentages as well.  Please take the time to indicate your age at the time of your MS diagnosis. Thanks, Lulu

I was given dx age 45years. I cannot remember experiencing any of these weird symptoms previously, so I guess I'm lucky.

I was diagnosed at 43 but I was 30 when my symptoms started... It kind of surprises me that as of right now the ages 50 -  59 is leading precentage wise for the age of diagnosis.... hmmm....
