Sorry to hear you are not doing so well.

I'm a bit surprised that he is taking you off Copaxone so soon . . . it's only been 5 months. I've always understood that the CRABs that 6 - 12 months to become effective in our system. This is probably true of most of the drugs we take.

Do you know if you have spinal lesions?

I can't give you any advise on Avonex because I don't use any of the DMD's, but I just wanted to say that I hope the steroids help.
