Diagnosed 2 years but had it for at least 14 years prior.With early onset I think diagnosis is a lot slower unless there is a family history,How old are you the youngest I know of is 20 but the onset of the disease has huge variation eg two people I know 1.diagnosed 20 years still can walk unaided 2. diagnosed 4 years now in wheelchair.It is the most complex disease.
