I too demanded to stop taking Copaxone. My MD pushed very hard to keep me on it. I begged for a year and finally reached my limit when I was riddled with lumps, bumps, craters, psoriasis, couldnt think, couldnt function, was exhausted and simply wasnt able to continue anymore. The MD was upset, but after I presented my arguments and said NO MORE! he stopped fighting me.

its been a while now since I stopped, and week by week I felt stronger, faster, more capable. The dents and craters are still there, but my hair came back in full and thick, my skin cleared up, my brain came back, the fog lifted, and I dont regret it for one minute.

I wish you the best of luck with whatever you choose.
