MS and type 1 diabetes

I have been a type 1 diabetic since the age of 3 now 50. I found out I had MS 7 years ago after years of having problems.

About 10 years ago I started having problems with balance and walking a straight line. My endo doctor said it was nothing and after a MRI my neuro Dr said it was the diabetes.

After waking up early on morning and falling flat on my face, my family thought i had a stroke I was 44.

After the same neuro Dr saw me in Hospital they determended I had MS.

My A1c are fine and taking Rebif now after years on Copaxone.
