lots of new members since this thread was started; if you haven't answered yet, please let us know what ALL your risk factors are as per above. I'll tally this up manually as the poll function only allows for one answer.
I had/have them all except the smoking.
LA dx'd Feb 2008
I am March.
My family does have history of Autoimmune just not MS. One Aunt & cousin each with Lupus and my sister has Soriasis.
I am August, as is one of my sisters Dx with MS. The other, also Dx w/ MS, is April
There is also some data suggesting that a birth month in the late spring (say March thru June) is a risk factor.
