Would yu have to pay for all of the Copaxone? Do you not have any insurance? It could be, that you may qualify for financial help in paying for it.
I do have insurance, but it is not the greatest but ok. I actually think that I am within $50 of my deductible this year already anyway, but I didn't want to contact the insurance company, because I don't want them to "label" me as an MS patient yet....maybe I am hoping that this is all a big joke?!
