Hi everyone. Looking for some input on this (good?) news....
So... Last month I had my first MRIs (brain, spine w / w.o., etc etc) since 2008 dx. I rejected MRIs over the years because I felt powerless (other than diet and exercise) against MS. And have been handling the pain without additional meds.... Important: I never experience any relapse or remission of sx, simply very slow progression.
At my appointment we go over the 2014 MRI results. His words; " no changes, nothing new and no activity.... Look's like the Copaxone is working."
I had been considering dropping the C altogether... I know and so does he that I'm getting worse.
Is C working or not? Is he claiming a "victory" when in reality I have always had SPMS (or some other version of this affliction), and it will simply do as it wishes, when it wishes, C or no C?
Thanks in advance for any / all comments or opinions. I'm not stressed but a bit annoyed regarding neuro comment VS what I know from reading the many posts @ MSW...
