Lovely. To my question "what type of MS do I have?" he replied "most likely Promary Progressive MS".

This keeps getting better and better. :cry:

I did the the ABX regime for one year, my liver did never show any problems - buts its certaily true that has to be careful about side-effects, especially when long term therapy is intended.
But Inf and Cop do also have to be taken long term and also have side-effects.

I did know that the "30%" applies to relapse rate, not improvement.

As you wrote before you do not think that you did ever experience a relapse, what is the benefit you could hope for with Inf-b or Cop?

ABX, LDN and supplement arent a miracle cure, but I do really think its worth a try when looking at the alternatives.

In you case who would pay for the Inf / Cop? Health Insurance? Because non of them is approved for PPMS.

Insurance is paying for Copax. Its possible the doctor did not put PPMS on the info.

I'm assuming he thinks Copax will slow down the progression.

I'm gonna start a new thread about abx.
