Maybe I'll make an appointment to see my regular doctor (who is total eye candy... ) I wanted to see if I could talk him into a Rx for LDN since the neuro wouldnt give me one.
Yeah...for 'giggles' one day, I was flipping through that yearly planner. In the back of it was all the fine print. Patient Information(probably the stuff even our dr's don't read, ) pg 229...1/1000 "Endocrine:goiter, hyperthyroidism, and hypothyroidism" This is in the 2% of those reporting symptoms during the clinical trials....Apparently, it's OUR responsibility to read this section of the paraphenalia---according to the first page of Patient Information. The dr's are responsible for talking about IPIR's.

Now my stepmom was looking at my info one night. She noticed it{Copaxone} contains mannitol. That's supposed to slow the release of the meds through the kidneys??
