I think just the title "what if I don't want to take meds?" is something we can all relate to. I would bet not one of us wants to take meds.

In my case I feel obligated to do whatever I can do to slow the progression of this miserable disease. If I had horrible side effects that affected my quality of life from all of the available dmds I would stop medicating however at this point I have been blessed to have minimal side effects and what I pray is a positive affect.

If you don't have RRMS I don't think the medications have been adequately tested or shown to be effective so I also might not be inclined to take one if they aren't shown to at least have some possible benefit. Nothing about this disease is easy.
