I am married with two children, I used to work blue collar before I started having MS symptoms. I like to fish and have fun. It all started in 2004, I woke up one morning and my left arm (from my fingers to my shoulder) was numb and radical responsive, no control. I went to my internist and he at first gave me a cortisone injection in my shoulder. A few days later I called him and asked if i could be having a stroke, because it was spreading up my neck and face. He told me to come in and when i arrived he had me admitted immediately. After many tests I was diagnosed with MS.
