Has anyone been diagnosed with MS in their 60's?
I was diagnosed with MS when I had just turned 30. However, I am sure I was having MS-related symptoms when I was a young preteen. I would have problems with spasms in my legs a lot. I was told it was growing pains. There were other signs too. I have had mental health issues since around that age as well!
I was diagnosed just a few months before my 45th birthday. Was even told by 2 drs I'd be in a chair n dead by age 50...lol. They're prediction was false n wrong. Im now 67 n still mobile yet my balance has become wobbiler...lol. And my left leg doesn"t always function like it should...but Im still moving and very much alive!
Your lucky you'll be able to keep going for a long time ☺️
I was diagnosed with MS when I had just turned 30. I am now 75; I am still going strong! In learning more about MS, I would say that I started having symptoms when I was about eight years old. Doctors said the leg pain and spasms were growing pains! I was also dealing with a lot of depression and started attempting suicide several times. LOL
I was in 2000.
