I just got a call from Shared Solutions. I have not tried to call them, because my Humana turned down the request for Tecfidera, because it is not a medicare covered drug. They sent me a letter that I could not appeal their decsion. My Doc sent my info to Biogen, and they are sending me the drug "Free" until the end of the year, then will reevaluate me.

So when I had given up all hope, I get that phone call out of the blue. So those of you on medicare, and a low income have a chance to get the drug free as well. Hope it works, been on Copaxone for about 6 years. I wlll follow along with the good and bad side effects when I start. Hopefully all good!!!:D

No problems for at least a week now. Been on it 2 weeks now; so far so good.
