Does anyone have a problem with being in denial about your diagnosis? I was dx in 2001 and STILL have trouble believing it. I will post my most current MRI results which will show you why I have my doubts. I have a lot of the weird symptoms, but not some of the most major ones.
Been taking Copaxone for 13 years and have daily pain, fatigue etc now, without letup. I used to get rests or better days, but now it is constant. I keep asking my neuro about this and she keeps telling me the radiologists can't really dx based on the results of the MRIs. I get that, but still wonder. I have stopped the shots because of some strange side effects: chills, fever, shivering.
