Hi Erin,

I'm so sorry you're feeling bad. I think your immune system has been greatly compromised with the taking of the Copaxone, indicated by you progressing chest cold, head cold, and yeast infection. Bugs are just having a hay day in your body right now.

I would suggest calling your PCP on Monday and get a walkin appt so he can Rx some strong antibiotics for you. You need to get your body back in balance and it has been my experience that, if let go, they only get worse.

Currently I too am fighting a chest cold and running nose. Nyquil and Sudafed haven't had much of a positive effect on my symptoms. I'm drinking plenty of fluids and trying to just relax and watch some football today. This can very easily turn into Bronchitis for me if I'm not careful.

Take care of yourself and use some Vick's Vaporub to help clear your lungs.

Keep us informed on your progress.
