Good morning all from Wisconsin! I happened across this forum last night while doing some personal research on some herbal supplements for fatigue, and I couldn't be happier! I'm in my fourth year with a diagnosis with MS, I'd say about a decade with symptoms. I'm 33. I don't have medical insurance, although I am able to see the doctors that I need to through a charity care program with a hospital in my city. This does not pay for MEDICATION! Ugh! So, I'm always up for a discussion about less expensive, and most importantly, effective and healthy options to big pharm. Take care everyone! Emily

Hi Emily ! Welcome! . I'm new to the site as well. My husband has a VP shunt that brought me to this website. I have found it to be a great place for support and information. I'm glad you found a charity program to help out! those medical bills can add up fast!! Type in on google the name of med and assistance program and see if you can't get your dr.'s to fill out some paper work and you may be able to get help on your meds to. Good Luck with everything
