Question ages??`

I was reading through some posts and I am starting to think I am the youngest of the group...
What are your ages.. (if you don't mind me asking) and how old were you when you were diagnosed??

BTW, I am 26, diagnosed when I was 24

Almost as old as dirt -- or at least that is how I feel today -- 52. I was dx two years ago, and did not have significant symptoms before my first flare.

I'll be **coughcough40coughcough** on May 24th.

I was diagnosed in 2007 just before I turned 38.

I'd had symptoms for at least 10 years that I never really connected to the MS until after I developed optic neuritis in 2006. Had no clue it was MS until the ON hit.

So, I was probably about 27 or 28 when the MS crap started. (about a year or so after I had mononucleosis is about when most of the weird symptoms started.)

35, DX'd at 33.

They think I had my first attack at 17 when they look through my med records.
