Would like to know what the first symptoms were that people experienced with MS and even those still in limbo

along with the choices below if there were other places where neuropathy and spasms were discovered that you were unaware of

and Optic neuritis if you have and when it started

First symptom of my MS was Lhermitte's in June 2006.  Electric/buzzing/vibrating sensation I would feel down my spine all the way to both feet, when I flexed my neck forward.
