What is happening with the Copaxone? I know there was posts on the MSworld forum about dull needles *shiver* and I was going to switch from Betaseron to Copaxone but I'm not prepared for dull needles or bee sting feelings (sigh).

Then I did get the Beta assistance but I think Beta made me depressed and I also have a thyroid prob. and I know it can effect that so I would lean more towards this study.

I have been reading the postings of the study on the msworld forum, and tickle's postings and I'm not worried about the deaths with this because that usually is the first/second dose you have any reactions and they keep you there and monitor you.

I just don't know if I'll get in the study. I know it can effect your blood pressure/pulse but it might be good in my case since it's supposed to raise your blood presure (I think) and your pulse lowers a bit.. well I have low blood pressure/high pulse (which I'm going to see PCP next week about).

Do you have any study sites near you? I am looking at the MS center of ATL, even though I had a miserable experience with one doctor there I hope this is different. Definitely keep this open as just another option

Ps- because my student insurance is so cheap, an added bonus is all the free testing
