Sassy,

I agree with the previous comments and know you are in a tough place. I think you should do more research and keep weighing the pros and cons of your choices. Have you tried solu-medrol? My Neuro offered me steroid infusions while on Copaxone to help with flare ups.

Avonex had the same horrible effect on me, so all of the betaserons were ruled out.

You can always call Biogen Idec (tysabri.com) and Teva (copaxone.com) to speak to their nurses, even if you are not currently using Tysabri. They will be glad to answer any questions.

I also scan clinicaltrials.gov periodically to see what other medications are being evaluated.

Does anyone know when the next Tovaxin trial starts?

I finally had my 3rd Ty infusion. The nurse got my vein on the first stick.
