Hi,
I have been diagnosed with MS for over 5 years and have been on Copaxone between my 2 pregnancies. My symptoms are fairly stable and I have learned to deal with them all the while working hard on eating well, keeping weight off, and keeping active.
However. I seem to go through these cycles in which the fatigue and cognitive dysfunction seem to consume me. It is incredibly frustrating which can leads me to be short tempered and slightly depressed (definitely not a part of my personality). I find this unacceptable.
I have talked to my neuro about this. He first asked if it was around my time of the month. It is not. And then seem to think I should just live with it. I don't really want to go on more medications but I will if I need to and if other techniques fail.
I feel just a bit loss. I so badly want to correct this but I don't know who (or what resources) to reach out to for help.
Any advice?
