Lisa, sorry to hear about the state you're in.

Have you been on IVSM (solumedrol) for any period during this?

I was dx'ed in 'relapse' so to speak, and put on IVSM at that time. 2 months later, bam, relapse, and was back on IVSM again.

Then I began my Copaxone just after the second course of IVSM (near the end of May 2008), and knock on wood, haven't relapsed yet, but my symptoms come and go.

I think I finally found a good combo of 'pain and symptom' medications for myself, in Amitriptyline and Clonazepam. Stress and anxiety definitely trigger my symptoms, and fully what triggered my previous relapse.
