its been six months and ...the same. no improvement in my dents. They are deep and they are ugly. I spoke to the neuro a couple of days ago and he said "when fat is gone, its gone. it doesnt regrow or reshift, its permanent, sorry"

I guess my bikini modeling days are over.

Now that I have quit Copaxone, I'm hoping I don't have to go back on it.
NOOOO, Jalee, not our Bikini Girl...EEEEk!!

I wish I hadn't crashed a few years back and lost all my pictures, I had a lovely Bikini picture of you to post.

The fat is gone? What if you start a major effort to get more? Maybe the dents aren't all that bad.
