He is now putting me on Copaxone, hoping this one does what it is suppose to do!! Just when I was adjusting to rebif (only been on it for 6 months) I have to start all over. What a huge let down! Wrestling with insurance, having a nurse come for a home visit, and adjusting to injecting myself every single day!! I really want to crawl in a hole and never come out. Thanks for letting me vent...

Sorry about Rebif not working. I thought that it took about 1 or 2 years to really see any results of rebif. I have been on rebif for about 7 months. I have MSLifelines working on reimbursement cause I can't afford the ins. copayment. Maybe you need a 2nd opinion. If it wasn't for the autoinjector and thin needle, I wouldn't be on anything. I hate needles and this whole ms thing has seriously cramped my lifestyle. I may not want to crawl in a hole but most days I do want to pull the covers over my head and not get out of bed. I hope that if you do get on the copaxone, it works for you.
Just take a deep breath and take one day at a time.
