I'm sure I posted something like this at the beginning of the week, but I guess our erstwhile moderator deemed it unsuitable. Never showed up anyway. Was the problem that my distress was too discouraging for newbs and veterans alike? Let's see if this one suffers the same fate.
What the subject line refers to is that after two weeks of stopping Copaxone and starting Tecfidera, and not being able to function with the ensuing nausea, dizziness, vomiting etc., my neuro said I should just stop, wait out the week and start up on Copaxone again. No reducing the dose, or any of the other strategies to deal with it discussed here. Just say no to Biogen Idec.
So that's what I've done. Started feeling better Wednesday evening. Relief!
I'll start injecting again on Sunday. After looking forward to an oral solution for two years, this was more than I bargained for. Maybe the next one they approve will agree with my gut better!
