When I first got the DX, I was so relieved we had an answer. Especially since they were first looking for a tumor. Then the limbo merry-go-round. So first reaction was, finally!

Then the first year grief cycle started soon thereafter. I was a mess for a little while, but eventually got out of that.

Copax was my first choice. I was one of the rare ones who got IPIRs, which became too much for me. Otherwise I'd still be on it - been stable for about two years (even in the spinal leisons which was cool) and not much else in side effects. There are site reactions, but those go down over time. Whether it's the bod getting used to the med or finding the right combo of heat/cold that works for you is up in the air.

Best of luck!
