Hi all,
Been lurking and posting since 2006. Been thru the DMDs and have been taking Gilenya for over 2 years. I have primary progressive with relapsing tendencies, and, yes I know that there is no proof that Gilenya has not been proven for anything other than RRMS. I think I am just so fed up with everything, meds and doc wise.
I have had a chronic headache, low heart rate, gi distress and several other side effects related to Gilenya, and I continue to progress. My neuro just continues to prescribe more meds to combat those side effects, well, you get the gist, right?
I also take a double dose of Prozac daily and suffer the side effects presented from that also, all the while my depression seems to be worsening. Now we have added Abilify to improve the prozac. And now I have more side effects to deal with.
I am 50 years old, and really have no one to be accountable to, and no desire to live til' I'm 80. I've been trying to follow a "clean" diet, exercise regularly, and give up smoking. Realistically, I feel just a crappy as I did before I started all of this a year ago.
So here's my thoughts, stop all the meds except the synthroid and Vitamin D, eat what I want within reason, puff a cigarette now and then, still exercise to my ability and just go out "AND ENJOY THE LIFE I HAVE LEFT" without all of this other BS. Get on my harley and just gooooooooo!!!!
What do you think?
