hi lisa,
i'm also sorry you're going thru so much. unfortunately meds are tough. so much of it is trial and error and up/down with doses. then, when you're on so many it's difficult.

the main thing is that you have a good pcp (hopefully an internist) that listen to you, believes you and validates you. then you have a team approach (with you as the leader) that can work.

do you have a neurologist? did you have an mri? do you have any positive tests for MS?

i'm on a lot of meds also. i'm also on a pain med and my pain dr does random urine tests. that's typical of what drs do when giving pain meds. they know you're a legit pt and not abusing.

i hope your dr can tease apart what will help you the most.
