Yes, that is possible.

I didn't know you were 24 <sigh> I was 24 when diagnosed.

One of my presenting symptoms at the time was L'Hermittes, which I still have. After I was diagnosed with MS my neuro told me when someone young, like myself, has L'Hermittes the first thing suspected is MS

My father passed away do to complications caused by ms.
I am very sorry, Elizabeth
