hi everyone, have only recently been diagnosed at 34. Not quite figured out how to deal with it yet, but in a way is good to have an answer! diagnosed on mri after getting double vision, but have had the electric shock symptoms on and off for a few years, and what was probably a CIS at 19. self diagnosis of 'faulty wiring' for as long as i can remember. Is age of onset as per the statistics valid at all??, i think i have always had rrms.. but maybe it's not until we get a bit older that our brains run out of re-routing options and start to cause more obvious problems?? Hope you all have a happy and healthier new year :-)

Dx at age 58. Haven't asked the doctor for anything more specific. Taking Copaxone.
First definitive symptoms at age 38. Told it wasn't MS after MRI done. I tracked down that MRI and had it copied to a CD. My MS doc points out multiple lesions that were clearly present twenty years before diagnosis.
