MS turned out to be an "automatic decline" when I tried to get my own insurance.

there are private programs to assist with the DMD costs, ask your doctor, or somebody here probably knows what's available in your area.

that's how I paid for my Betaseron.

and good luck, Volada!
thanks for your msg and sorry for your troubles!
but i hear what your saying and it is good to know--hopefully this won't lead to divorce for me but i am truly annoyed by my "beloved's" reaction --he seems highly inconvenienced and not really supportive in the way i need...we shall see! having two little kids is hard enough but with ms and working full time-- i sense extra challenges coming on

You gain strength, courage and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You are able to say to yourself, 'I have lived through this horror. I can take the next thing that comes along.' You must do the thing you think you cannot do. Eleanor Roosevelt
