lol... yep it looks like you win.. my bday is january 15... so I just recently turned 26 too! It's good to know I am not the youngest... it makes it kinda depressing (*not meant in a mean way at all... just mean it seems like I am the only 20 something person with MS*)

Thanks everybody for your overwhelming response!!! :)

Aww... that is so awesome that you get on here with your Mom... :) that is really cool...

well... you are the youngest now... sorry i am going through and replying as I read the posts!!
Man, dx before turning 18 huh? that must have been rough.. I couldn't imagine dealing with all this while in highschool..
I give you props!! :)

29 was diagnosed when I was 26 and a half years old although I think I have had problems every since I was a teenager and looking back on it it explains a lot of problems I had.

actully, i took it well, i was like ahuh, is that it (lol).:p

also i wasnt in highschool, cause i had droped out at sixteen years old, dum move too, i wish id go back, altho havent yet, trying to find the gunts too heh, maybe someday soon.

anyways yeah 18 heh i took it well tho. im a very easy going person tho nothing gets to me.

I'm 32 now, and I was diagnosed about a year ago. I've heard that the late 20's/early 30's is the most common time to be diagnosed with MS.

We have the advantage of being diagnosed in a time where MS researchers are finding out all sorts of new things about the disease. The DMD's will give us a much higher chance of maintaining a normal life as we age and progress. I'm hopeful. :)
