From what I have written In my diary and talking with my oldest brother, I have probably had MS since my late teens. Probably about 20 years now. I have never been a lazy person, but In my late teens after I joined the Army I would get tired very easy. It was tough passing some of the physical fitness test. I always had to work extra hard to do a lot of things that come to most people very easy. I always wondered why some things was harder for me to do. When I was diagnossed with MS It all made sense.
