Was diagnosed because of a severe headache (not typical), 3 days in the ER and an MRI later showed MS. I wasn't shocked or upset over the outcome since I knew someone with MS, was mostly relieved to know what was wrong. Since I was adopted so I have no real family history to judge things, think I will seek out my birthparents now, see if my birthmother or birthfather (or half brother on birthfathers side) has come down with this too. I do know my birthmother was also adopted so she doesn't have any history either but she can tell me of her history to date. Should be interesting to see.
