I joined the U.S. Navy right out of high school with the intention of not being drafted. I chose where I wanted to be. I learned a skill and shot up through the ranks to attain Master Chief Petty Officer in my 18th year. I began experiencing problems with occasional parasthesias, urine flow, right eye problems with visual acuity over the years. Heck, I think I can't really put a finger on when I first began experiencing symptoms. Beginning in 1990, I started experiencing urinating difficulties and was diagnosed with MS in December 1991 after three positives that pointed to MS.
