I am 45 yrs. old. Married for 20 years. Have 3 teenagers. I remember exactly my first symptom of m.s. It was the morning of my daughter's First Communion, it was May, 1996. I was in the shower and noticed that my pinkie finger on my right hand was sort of numb. Having a big party that day, I didn't have time to dwell. Slowly the strange numbness crept up my arm and down my right side of my body and down my leg. I went to a Chiropractor, sure I had pinched a nerve, months later, I could hear a weird noise in my neck when I moved my chin down. I saw a Neurologist then.
