Does anyone else in your family have MS?

Hey @padres44‍,

My aunt on my dad's side has MS, but other than that I do not know of anyone else. 

This is a good topic. I am interested in reading other's responses.

I am the lone soldier in my family 

just me.  I do have a friend with ms who has a brother also with ms

I have MS and my mother also had it. My mom always suspected my grandma did tho, just undiagnosed.

 I am a patient with MS. Just diagnosed. A few weeks ago

@lisamaj01‍, sorry to hear you were diagnosed with MS, but glad you have joined here at Carenity!

A good friend of mine was diagnosed a few months ago. He is the only one on his family.

I have had cancer twice no one in the family but me and now MS no one but me

I was just dx... however my cousin on my dads side of the family was dx several years (maybe 4/5) ago and is on a great tx plan and doing well.

I was diagnosed in 2014 at age 30. I'm the only one, cousin on my dad side gas lupus, which I heard is very similar. Also, was told by my neurologist is could be due to my father being born with rheumatoid arthritis in his hand, unable to straighten his fingers, I have no idea. Was listening to independent news (Gary Null) on prn (progressive radio network). Heard him state that cannabis oil with high THC is a cure for multiple sclerosis, have to look into that. Sorry to hear about everyones diagnosis, tough to live with ?

I have MS also. I’m sorry to all ...  I have no support system which makes things rough. Thank your lucky stars if you do.
