That is super TX. I do hope it is the meds helping you, but who cares. If it ain't broke don't fix it.

I have some heat sensitivity and fatigue from time to time, and my hearing still gets weird at times, but other than seeing more and more lesions show up on my MRIs, you would never know I have MS.

I understand the frustration you are expressing with the commercials, and I know that my experience is anything but typical, but I am living the life they are trying to make people think is possible with MS. I have no idea if the DMDs are what have kept my symptoms away, but I do have to say it isn't as impossible as it might seem to somebody who hasn't been as lucky as I have.
