How many of you does this article ring true for? It does for me; I was born in January in the Western Hemisphere.
Just Curious!

I was born in Montana in late December. Montana has a relatively high rate of MS. My dad's family came from the North Sea coast of Germany (another area with a higher rate of MS than average).

Born in Indiana, after 6 mos family moved to Arizona, Fathers side no MS history. Fift generation from Germany. Mother adopted, no history availiable. Mother DX 1960, MS. Died 1975,MS. Four siblings, two older sisters, one younger. My younger sis and I have MS. She still lives in Arizona, along with one older sis.We all ended up in Calif. One still there, I'm in Tn. Plenty of sun where we have been and where we are. The birth mos are oldest to youngest. Feb, Oct, Mar, & Oct. So think what you want. How come very few if any MS in Alaska Natives? Who in their right mind would choose to live on the equator? I'm just guessing here, but did the French Canadians come from France. Did most of the imagrants in the northeast come from Europe? IT IS WHAT IT IS! GOD BLESS YOU & YOURS....MIKE......

No conclusions yet; just going off of an article posted here to see if there was any coincidence with the members here. The article stated that there is a higher occurrence; not that it is the only occurrence. Just off of the few people who've responded; I would say that the article was ringing truer than not. Thank you for responding.

Hi HollyK, as you can tell from my profile picture I am Africian-American, I think that when my brother did the family tree thingie, we originated from Germany. As far back as we can go no MS, I am the first. Have two daugthers, no MS. But then mine did not show up until I was 44. I was told that I had it all my life, it was just dormant, but was there all the time.

North America is in the northern hemisphere; so being born in the winter is one more thing they say that adds to our susceptibility for developing MS per the article written...
