At what age did you receive your MS Diagnosis?

Just a little curious  at what age you were DX with MS & what type of MS?


                How many years have  you had your DX?

Dx at age 31 w/ RR.

1 yr later, SP

Drs say the lesions and black spots suggest I have been living with this a very long time.

I was dx'd in 2007 at the age of 51. At first the neuro thought it couldn't be MS until he looked at my MRI and burst out with, "how in the heck did they miss this all these years?" and told me I have had MS for at least 25 years based on the MRI and accompanying symptoms.

dx's at 50 years old with secondary progressive MS.............

They also figure I have had it for a long time, and for some reason it decided to really kick up its heals just before my 50th birthday...... I am now 52 and still working out the Dr's sicuation.....
Hope this helps,

Cheers,
Candy
