    Singulair for GI symptoms?

    A nurse in my neurologist's office told me today that the best thing they have found for nausea and diarrhea from Tecfidera is Singulair.

    It's a big MS specialty practice, and she works on the nurse phone line a lot. She said they had tried everything else, peanut butter, fatty foods, immodium, etc. She did not know how someone came up with it, but that it works.

    I have been really fortunate, on Tecfidera for 3 months with only a couple of minor flushing episodes, no GI symptoms.

    No way! That's really interesting ... and random.
    One of my 4-year-old twins is on Singulair. I should steal a couple of his pills and see what happens.
    2001: 1st 2 relapses, "probable MS." 2007: 3rd relapse. Dx of RRMS confirmed by MS specialist. Started Cpx. (Off Cpx Feb 08-Mar 09 to start a family; twins!) Dec '09: Started Beta. Oct '13: Started Tecfidera. May '15: Considering Gilenya.

      Ha! One of my 7 year old twins is on it....

      (OK, not really going to take his meds, but this is interesting all the same!)
