Some stay on the meds anyway and pay cash for them if needed for that extra insurance. its a personal choice. Once you start removing all the chemicals, and additives from your diet, you will be amazed at how much changes. Your skin, hair, eyes, stamina, attitude, and energy level.

I have turned my grocery store into my pharmacy, and havent regretted a single minute of it. I feel a thousand times better eating organic, fresh whole foods than I ever did on Copaxone or Betaseron. but thats my story.
yes agree... I have tried teaching my bf the benefits of foods as our natural medicine. he's much better with diet than he was pre-MS. and he takes all his supplements I lay out for him lol. But he LOVES to smoke and drink when he socialises, its his way of dealing with stress and the only way he knows how to have a good time. I guess he feels he was too young when diagnosed and uses it as an excuse to live life now and worry later

anyway back to the visa issue, I think we might not declare it then when we go to apply... now to make him realise that giving up tysabri also means embracing a healthier lifestyle...I want him to realise this sooner rather than later
