I have tried a lot of things but I don't have the courage to stop taking Copaxone. Because I am very fit my percentage of body fat is very low. Trying to find an area to inject is very hard and quite painful at times. Such a small price to pay to be where I am today.

My Dr. explained to me once when I asked why I get tired so early in the evening. He said, Rick everything you do your are forcing your mind to process. All those involuntary movements that the rest of us have are not there for you. So as the day winds down you my friend are pretty mentally exhausted. That actually made good sense to me and helped me cope better with my situation.

I have also learned, believe me, the hard way that when MS speaks listen and rest. Tomorrow is always another day to do battle. I have learned to always listen and stay in touch with my body.
