I enlisted in the Air Force in Aug 1986, after earning my BA degree, earned commissioned in 1999 and earned my MS degree afterwards. I served a total of 27 years to Nov 2013 mostly in communications. I’ve been stationed in CA, MS, ND, UT, DE, LA to include Korea then finally GA with deployments to Panama and Iraq. I was symptomatic since Feb 2009, unfortunately I was treated for sciatica until finally went to a neurologist and was diagnosed in Mar 2012 after symptoms progressed some. Hoping for a cure, but in the meantime, currently take a lot of natural supplements to slow progression.
