I'm back on Copaxone again as of about mid January or so. I was on Avonex first at DX for 18 months, in a clinical trial, and that only worked so-so for me. I still got new symptoms while on it. Switched to Rebif for only five months because I developed severe depression and anxiety while taking it and anti-depressants didn't help at all.
Then it was Copaxone for 18 months and it worked pretty good. I switched to Tysabri (stayed on it about three years or so) because of all the good things I had heard about it. But it didn't work as well for me as Copaxone ... so I'm back on it and plan to "stick" with it for the long run. It has a very long track record of safety and it's working so I'm hoping it keeps working for me. I'm still working 40+ hours per week and working my heinie off too, lol.
